James Anderson Appointed Lancashire Captain For 2026 County Season
After agreeing to a new one-year deal with the Red Rose in November, Anderson—who held the position temporarily during the 2025 season—will now assume the red-ball leadership permanently. The 43-year-old, England's all-time top wicket taker, retired from international cricket last year after making his Lancashire debut in 2002 and playing for the Red Rose throughout his domestic career.
“Captaining Lancashire for the first time last season was a huge privilege, and I’m honoured to take on the role full-time heading into the new season.
