James Anderson says he is "still fit enough" to continue his cricket career and will consider a move into white ball cricket.
The 42-year-old, the most prolific fast bowler in Test history, announced his retirement from international cricket after England's win against the West Indies at Lord's in July.
While Anderson stopped short of announcing his retirement from cricket, his immediate transition into a coaching and mentoring role with England suggested that his playing days were over.
But Anderson, who took 704 wickets in 188 tests, says he's "open" to prolonging his career by playing short form cricket.
"I might be in a bit of denial because I'm well aware I won't play for England again, but I've still not made a decision on my actual cricket career," Anderson told the Press Association.
"There's definitely a bit of intrigue with the shorter formats because I've not played any franchise stuff before. Watching The Hundred this year, seeing the ball swing around, it makes me feel like I could do a job there.
"I know it's a while since I played it and my age will get brought up again but I really feel I'll be good enough to play that form of cricket."
Anderson added he would make a decision on his future at the end of the summer and he is "not shutting myself off to anything."
Anderson's last 20-over match was in 2014 as he dedicated the last 10 years of his career to red ball cricket.
England are keen to tap into Anderson's expertise before the 2025 Ashes series in Australia by retaining him in a coaching role.
