Jimmy Anderson 'splits the G' as he sips a pint of Guinness alongside his England team-mates in the dressing room as he delivers emotional interview with Nasser Hussain after bowing out of Test cricket

Jimmy Anderson sat back and enjoyed a well-deserved pint of Guinness alongside his team-mates, as England's all-time leading wicket-taker bowed out of Test match cricket. 

The Lancashire bowler will retire from Test match cricket having taken 704 wickets since he made his Test debut in 2003. 

The 41-year-old added to his record haul during his final Test at Lord's, taking four wickets during the match, with Ben Stokes' side going on to clinch victory in their first match against the West Indies. 

Anderson was given a guard of honour after England's win had been confirmed,  with the England bowler, returning to the changing room to enjoy a pint of Guinness. 

Sat next to Ben Stokes, he delivered an emotional interview with Sky Sports' presenter Nasser Hussain while he sipped his pint, with the England star speaking out on his future and what playing for England means to him. 

Some online claimed that Anderson had even 'split the G' on his pint, with Mail Sport's Lewis Steele lauding the bowler as a true hero: 'All the England players with a pint of Guinness, Jimmy the only one to split the G. A true hero to the very end.'

Another added: 'Jimmy Anderson is being interviewed in the dressing room with a Guinness in his hand while his teammates are necking pints at midday. Cricket is undefeated.'

Speaking to Sky Sports, Anderson was asked by Hussain what he plans to do next, but he quickly quipped: 'Can I enjoy my pint first? I have not thought that far ahead.

'I will stick ahead for the summer to try help the bowling group as much as I can. We will see where life takes us.'

Asked whether he has held his emotions together, he added: 'I think I have. This morning was quite emotional with the two teams and the reaction of the crowd. I am still trying to hold them [the tears] back. I am just really proud. Playing for 20 years is an incredible effort. I am happy I have made it this far and stayed injury free.

'Playing for England is the best job in the world so I am lucky to have been able to do it for a long time.'
