Australian swing bowler Dan Worrall has earned comparisons to Jimmy Anderson as a pair of England legends push for him to be selected by Brendon McCullum ahead of next year’s Ashes tour.
Is an England cap within reach for Dan Worrall?Worrall has plucked 139 wickets at 21.17 for Surrey over the past three seasons, including 52 at a paltry 16.15 apiece this year. With a British passport via his father’s heritage, Worrall was in the long queue behind Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood before defecting and moving to the UK to play as a local in 2022 – and after three full years he will be eligible for England in April 2025.
“After Jimmy Anderson, over the last two years he’s the best bowler in the country. He is as close to Jimmy Anderson skills wise that I’ve seen, and he’s just got better and better,” Stewart told the London“If he gets picked, there will be plenty of headlines and plenty of comments, but we have got to move with the times. Really, it’s not ideal, I just want people born and bred in England, grew up wanting to play for England.
Anderson’s longtime bowling offsider Stuart Broad has remarked that a seasoned customer of Worrall’s type would be the ideal adjunct to a young England attack next year.“I’m a huge fan of Dan’s bowling – he’s the standout player in county cricket,” Broad said this week. “He moves the ball consistently, and not just the red ball – he can nibble the new white ball around too and has good skills. I like what he does with that wide angle on the crease, he can swing the ball away and nip it back.
