“700 Test wickets is a stellar achievement. A fast bowler playing for 22 years and performing so consistently to be able to take 700 wickets would have sounded like fiction until Anderson actually made it happen. Simply magnificent!,” Tendulkar wrote on his official X handle

The first time I saw Anderson play was in Australia in 2002, and his control over the ball looked special.

Nasser Hussain spoke very highly of him back then and today, I am sure, he would say, “Maine bola tha” — that he had called it so early. 😀

No one could have put it more aptly about his longevity than Sachin Tendulkar. “700 Test wickets is a stellar achievement. A fast bowler playing for 22 years and performing so consistently to be able to take 700 wickets would have sounded like fiction until Anderson actually made it happen. Simply magnificent!,” Tendulkar wrote on his official X handle.
