James Anderson appeals during England's test against Pakistan. Photo: Getty ImagesEngland bowler James Anderson moved one shy of 600 test wickets as he struck late on a frustrating and mainly forgettable fourth day of the third test against Pakistan this morning. England are looking to wrap up a 2-0 series win although tonight's (NZT) weather forecast is for heavy rain. Anderson will hope that the weather forecast for Tuesday improves so that he gets the chance to reach another milestone. Already England's leading test wicket taker, Anderson is behind only spinners Muttiah Muralitharan (800) of Sri Lanka, Australia's Shane Warne (708) and India's Anil Kumble (619).
