England seamer James Anderson remains hopeful of playing in the second Test against India after a positive training spell at Loughborough. Anderson, recovering from a stress fracture of his right shoulder blade, has joined his England team-mates in Rajkot and hopes to make a decision on his fitness in the next two to three days.The second Test begins at Visakhapatnam on November 17 and while Anderson admits that it would not be ideal to step back onto the international stage with no match practice under his belt, the 34-year-old is confident he could reacclimatise to Test cricket quickly. A pick of the action from the first day of the first Test I had a good week at Loughborough last week getting some overs under my belt and hopefully I can keep that going this week and get some miles in my legs and keep wandering around and make sure Im as fit as I possibly can be and maybe be fit for the second Test, he told Sky Sports. The story of Day One Catch up with the key moments from the first day of the first Test between England and India I did a good amount last week - I got 30 overs in, in the week - and this week is about carrying that on and maybe increasing the intensity a little bit. The rest is standing around, getting used to being up on my feet for seven or eight hours a day.It [the second Test] is still over a week away so its hard to say right now but it all depends on how this week goes. In the next two or three days well have a good idea of whether that is a possibility or not. Test Cricket: The Verdict November 9, 2016, 3:00pm Live on Get Sky Sports Get a Sky Sports pass At first we thought maybe the fourth Test was a possibility but the way that Ive progressed in the last two or three weeks has been positive.I feel good; I felt good last week at Loughborough in the nets and hopefully this week I can continue that and get used to the heat quite quickly.At the tender age of 34 Ive got enough experience to get back into match-mode quite quickly; its not always easy without having any games under your belt but I think Im able to do that. This week will be key to see where Im at, especially with the heat.Andersons earlier-than-expected arrival in India enabled him to witness Stuart Broad, his long-term opening partner, receive his 100th Test cap from England and Wales Cricket Board Director Andrew Strauss. Stuart Broad looks back on his England Test career In total Anderson has played 89 of his 119 Tests with Broad, the pair taking a combined tally of 823 wickets across their careers, and he paid tribute to his team-mates amazing achievement.I thought I was going to miss it with the injury and stuff but it was great that I could make it out here in time and see him get his cap this morning off Straussy, said Anderson.Hes been a fantastic bowler for years and Ive been fortunate to play in the majority of his 100 Tests as well. Weve created a great friendship both on and off the field and Im delighted that I could be here.Off the field we talk a lot about the game - we know each others game inside out; we talk a lot on the field. But I think we are slightly different as bowlers so we complement each other as well, which works. Weve got a good connection; we get each other. We kind of know when its going to be one guys day and the other guy just tries to sit in and help him out.Live coverage of the first Test between India and England continues on Sky Sports 2 and across selected mobile devices.
