“It is still over a week away. It is hard to say right now, but it will all depend on how this week goes. I’m sure in the next two of three days we will have a good idea of whether that is a possibility or not.
“At first we thought maybe missing four Tests was a possibility, but the way I have progressed over the last two or three weeks has been positive.”
The Lancastrian added, “At the tender age of 34 I’ve got enough experience to get into match mode quite quickly.
Obviously it is not always easy without having any games under my belt, but I think I am able to do that.”
Anderson congratulated his pace bowling partner Stuart Broad after he followed in his footsteps and won his 100th Test cap in the onging opening Test in Rajkot.
“I thought I was going to miss it, with the injury and stuff, but it is great I could make it out here in time and see him get his cap this morning off Straussy (Andrew Strauss),” Anderson added.
“What an amazing achievement. He has been a fantastic bowler for years, I am fortunate to have played the majority of his 100 Tests as well, and created a great friendship on and off the field. I am just delighted to be here.
