‘I have a lot to offer’: 44-year-old Jimmy Anderson joins Surrey for 2027

Jimmy Anderson will continue his career in 2027 after signing to play for Surrey.

England men’s all-time leading wicket taker was released by Lancashire at the end of the 2026 season. But the 44-year-old will play on after agreeing a deal at the Kia Oval.

“It’s an honour to join a club like Surrey and I can’t wait to start a new chapter in my career,” he said.

“I still feel like I have a lot to offer, taking wickets, trying to help the team win games of cricket. I also think that I can bring a lot to the team off the field and help those young players who are looking to develop their skill set and go on and represent their country.”
