England fast bowling legend James Anderson, who has not been called up for national duty for the recent series defeat in West Indies, is still baffled by his exclusion from the Test team. He has claimed that he has failed to receive an explanation for being dropped.

Anderson along with his long-time opening partner Stuart Broad has been excluded from the team for the last few Test matches.

According to reports in the English media, the national team setup is undertaking a "red-ball reset" and it appears that the two pacers are being kept out of the team as part of the reset process.

"I've stopped trying to make sense of it and just put it to one side," Anderson was quoted as saying by the local media.

"It was completely out of my control. I've got to focus on what I can control and that is bowling as well as I possibly can. Firstly that is [with Lancashire] these next two months, try and take as many wickets as I possibly can and see what happens from there," said the 39-year-old Anderson.
