England's voice of cricket David Lloyd provided a record of being a witness to James Anderson bowling as a left-arm spinner.

In a conversation with Guerilla Cricket, when Lloyd was asked about his opinion on Joe Root changing his batting hands to become a southpaw in the Pakistan Test series, he drew his comparison with Anderson as he saw the pacer rolling over his arms as a left-arm spinner.

"This morning I have seen Jimmy Anderson bowling left-handed. Jimmy Anderson has bowled very acceptable left-arm spin this morning," Bumble shared.

When asked if Jofra Archer, who used to practise as a left-arm spinner, has rubbed this habit onto Anderson, Lloyd cited that it is the other way around.

"I think that Jimmy has kicked it onto Jofra," the 75-year-old said.


Further, Chris Woke, a parody character who is a 'social justice warrior' made an appearance in the fourth episode of 'Who's that Weirdo', comically ranting about how he and the other Social Justice cricket correspondents are being overworked.

"It's a well-known fact that Social Justice cricket correspondents are scandalously overworked these days… My workload is simply unmanageable," Woke delivered a monologue.
