He did it in Aus with the Kooka, using accuracy.
If he gets his accuracy back again then he may get a couple today.

Maybe so Ginger but that may be due to more bouncy Aussie tracks but was he not still out bowled by Tremlett, Bresnan and Finn?
I think Jimmy was our leading wicket taker?
Anderson obviously likes grey skies as he is a swing bowler but if he gets the line and length right then a small amount of swing is all he needs.

Obviously but that was the problem. You can swing it all you want but if you bowl to wide or short or both then you will struggle.
Anderson is clearly out of sorts, even when the ball was swinging on day 3 his line and length was terrible.
His pace has been down all year and 82 mph bowling, wide and short, is not going to trouble batsmen of India's quality.

Ginger - He was but Bresnan, Finn and Tremlett played less games but in the games they played to me they impressed but i'm not saying Jimmy was bad in Aus.
Yes he likes grey skies but PK was swinging the ball in all conditions. If England are going to win today against this strong batting lineup then Jimmy needs to be in the wickets and not waste the 2nd new ball.
England have definitely missed Bresnan, for me I would put him ahead of Tremlett in the pecking order.
A bit harsh, hope.
One ok game (could be a good one after today) and you are dropping him.
I think Tremlett is one dimensional whereas Bresnan offers more variety and bowls to left handed batsmen better.
In Oz he got Mike Hussey out quite often.
2 wickets for Jimmy this morning. He is listening to me.
Why Can't Jimmy do it in the SUN?
