James Anderson to miss England’s Test against Ireland - report

James Anderson will miss England's Test against Ireland on Wednesday, according to media reports. England bowler Anderson will not feature against Ireland in their historic Test at Lord's as he continues his recovery from a right calf injury.

Anderson tore his right calf while playing for Lancashire earlier this month but was included in the 13-man squad to face Ireland in a one-off Test, which begins on Wednesday.

The 36-year-old, who is England's all-time leading wicket-taker in Test cricket, did not take a full part in training on Monday and has been ruled out of the four-day match at Lord's.
