England's veteran pacer James Anderson will be wanting to sign off on a high when India takes on Ben Stokes-led for the final time in IND vs ENG Test series.

James Anderson's records in IND vs ENG Tests: England, having conceded the five-match IND vs ENG Test series 3-1, are gearing up to face India for the fifth and final match starting from March 7 onwards in Dharamshala.

England's veteran pacer James Anderson will be wanting to sign off on a high when India takes on Ben Stokes-led England for the final time in IND vs ENG Test series. In the initial four Tests of the IND vs ENG Test series, Anderson has secured a total of eight wickets across three matches, boasting a best spell of 3/47. In the recently-concluded 4th Test in Ranchi, his figures were 2/48 and 0/12.

Let's have a look at records James Anderson can break in IND vs ENG 5th Test in Dharamshala 

700 wickets in Test cricket: Anderson, with 698 Test wickets for England, is on the verge of reaching the historic milestone of 700 Test wickets. The 41-year-old pacer stands poised to become only the third bowler and first-ever pacer in Test history to achieve 700-plus wickets, following the footsteps of Muthiah Muralidaran (800 Test wickets) and Shane Warne (708 Test wickets).

150 wickets in IND vs ENG Tests: James Anderson, with 147 wickets from 38 IND vs ENG Test matches, stands on the brink of becoming the first bowler to secure 150 Test wickets against India. Other bowlers with 100-plus wickets in IND vs ENG Tests are Australian spinner Nathan Lyon (121 wickets) and Sri Lankan spinner Muttiah Muralitharan (105 wickets).

250 wickets in away matches: James Anderson has so far picked 242 wickets from 75 matches in away games (not playing on English soil). The legendary pacer needs 8 more wickets in IND vs ENG 5th Test to reach a significant milestone of 250 wickets in away matches. Also, 8 wickets in the final Test will help Anderson complete 50 Test wickets in India.

The fifth and final Test of the five-match IND vs ENG Test series will kickstart from March 7 onwards.
