Even as the debate continues about James Anderson's paternity leave continues on, the England fast bowler's suspenseful time in England has now terminated with his wife, Danielle, giving birth to their second child, a daughter, yesterday afternoon.

Anderson had used the opportunity between the second Test in Adelaide and the third Test in Perth of the Ashes 2010, to fly back home to be by his wife at the time of the birth of their second child and now it appears, Anderson will return rejuvenated as the father of two girls.

While some have labelled the time as disruptive for England and Anderson's rhythm, it was at Anderson's behest that the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) granted him the time out.
