SEAMS LIKE A LACK OF OPTIONS

Broad: Bowling attack experience without Jimmy is 'quite scary'

- RORY DOLLARD

STUART BROAD believes England could find themselves with a "quite scary" lack of bowling experience once his old partner James Anderson joins him in retirement this summer.

Anderson, the most prolific seamer in Test history, is set for a farewell appearance against the West Indies at Lord's in July, bowing out at the age of 41 as head coach Brendon McCullum looks to the future.

Broad departed in memorable fashion at the end of last summer's Ashes, meaning England will soon be without a duo boasting an incomparable 1,304 wickets across 354 matches.
