England cricketer Jimmy Anderson takes the cover and has posed nude for the October issue of Attitude magazine. The married player, 28, said there was no homophobia in the game and urged gay players to come out. He said: "If there are any gay cricketers, they should feel confident enough to come out, because I don't think there is homophobia in cricket. Football fans can be quite abusive and quite harsh, and cricket fans can be like that sometimes, but they are generally quite placid and there to watch the game and support their team." Anderson, who plays for Lancashire County, added that he hoped the feature would encourage new fans to the sport. The October issue of Attitude, out now in the UK, will arrive stateside in about 3 weeks.
