James Anderson has outlined his ambition to play international cricket for England for a further five years.
The 33-year-old became the Three Lions' all-time leading wicket taker in Test cricket earlier this year and made his 109th Test appearance in his side's defeat to Pakistan in Abu Dhabi.
Despite rigours of the international game, Anderson has insisted that he wants to continue his career for the foreseeable future.
He told Sky Sports News: "I'm loving it at the minute, loving bowling, loving playing, enjoying taking wickets and the challenges we've got ahead. Why can't I play for another five years?
"I'm going to keep going till my body can't take any more. I think I'm noticing the quality of beds more now, and how my back pulls up after a dodgy night's sleep.
"People keep mentioning the age, and everything, so you do think about it. [But] I feel fit and strong - and I'm really enjoying it."
The third Test of England's series against Pakistan begins on Sunday.
