England captain Ben Stokes stated prior to the third Test: “It’s a good chance for Jimmy to have a rest up and then get ready to charge in from the James Anderson End at Old Trafford.”

Anderson, 40, is England’s all-time leading Test wicket-taker and has had one end of the Old Trafford ground named after him.
