England's all-time leading wicket-taker James Anderson says he "hated every minute" of playing in The Hundred last year and intends to go on holiday during the 2026 tournament. Anderson, 43, was picked as a wildcard in 2025 after impressing with 17 wickets in initial block of the T20 Blast for Lancashire. He was signed by Manchester Originals, the side linked to Lancashire, and took two wickets in three games. The seamer has been named Lancashire's red-ball captain for 2026 and intends to focus on winning the Red Rose promotion from division two, alongside playing in the Blast. "When The Hundred's on, I'm hopefully going to be on holiday somewhere."
