Betfair punters have been alerted to the news Lancashire fast bowler James Anderson has been called into the England squad for the first Test against the West Indies.
Anderson is in action for his county on Wednesday morning but will link up with the rest of the England squad in the afternoon, after being placed on standby by new England coach Peter Moores.
Anderson's chances of playing in the first Test very much depend on whether Lancashire team-mate Andrew Flintoff shakes of an ankle injury to figure in the Lords' encounter.
Having traded as big as 16, the 24-year-old is now available at 9.8 in Betfair's market for England's top wicket taker of the series, with Matthew Hoggard the 3 favourite.
Steve Harmison is also tipped to do well over the four Tests and is trading at 3.15 to finish the series as England's top bowler.
