Legendary England seamer James Anderson has credited his partner-in-crime Stuart Broad for chipping in with advice that helped the Lancashire cricketer claim 2-in-2 on the opening day of the 2nd Test against the Proteas.

Anderson went bang bang after the Lunch break as he trapped the South African spin duo of Simon Harmer and Keshav Maharaj to leave the visitors reeling at 92-7.

However, the seeds for it were sown when Harmer dished out a forward defensive block to Anderson. Broad then went up to his senior partner and urged him to play the double bluff i.e set the field for a bouncer but bowl a fuller delivery.



Anderson did exactly that and ended up trapping both Harmer and Maharaj plumb in front of the wicket.
