“I didn’t have a clue actually. It’s not that I’d look it up and try and take it down. But it’s nice to have it,” he told a press conference. Anderson joined Jesse Ryder in the middle when New Zealand were 84 for three. Ryder, back in the team, was on 41 at the time and Anderson, who only made his ODI debut against England last June, thought his role would be a support one. “I thought I would look at singles and try and get myself in but a couple came out of the middle and you keep going,” he said. “Me and Jesse started thinking every ball was either going to get us out or go for six and it’s nice to have that feeling when you are out there.” The pair posted 191 for the fourth wicket, with Ryder making 104 which itself was the sixth fastest ton in ODIs. This is the latest positive mark for Anderson with the all-rounder having scored his maiden Test ton in October against Bangladesh.
