James Anderson will continue his role as fast-bowling mentor in England’s series against Pakistan in October.
Anderson, England’s all-time leading wicket-taker, retired from international cricket following the first Test against West Indies in July.
“At the minute, I’m due to go to Pakistan and New Zealand in the winter,” he said. “Then nothing concrete after that. In the third and final Test against Sri Lanka at The Oval, England have handed a debut to 20-year-old Josh Hull, a 6ft 7ins left-armer from Leicestershire with only 16 wickets from 10 first-class matches.
“There might be people behind the scenes chatting to people,” he said. “I have not played white-ball cricket for a while so that is the first thing I need to get back to if I am to think about doing it.There is some doubt over the schedule for the series in Pakistan. The Tests are due to be played in Karachi, Multan and Rawalpindi, but some grounds are undergoing renovation works before the Champions Trophy next year.
