‘Advantage for England with Anderson escaping ban’
5 Aug 2014 4:59 AM IST
Former fast bowler Steve Harmison feels the advantage rests with hosts England in the remaining two Tests with James Anderson managing to escape without a ban for his Level 3 charge in the Trent Bridge incident.
Anderson was on Friday exonerated by the judicial commission set up by the ICC for allegedly pushing Indian all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja during the first Test in Nottingham that was drawn. India had then won the second Test at Lord’s by 95 runs, before England levelled the series with a 266-run win in the third Test at Southampton.
‘I am not being biased here. Rather I am talking from the series’ point-of-view. It is set up so well, with both teams in good nick, batting and bowling well. The score is at 1-1 after three Tests and we have two beautifully set-up matches to look forward to,’ he said. Agencies
