Neither took a wicket in the third Test win and while England want to provide proper opportunities to young players they will consider bringing in either Finn or Ben Stokes to their final Test team.
At least Broad and Anderson will be available to carry on one of the best new-ball partnerships in English history, with Anderson now just eight wickets away from overtaking Sir Ian Botham and becoming England's leading Test wicket-taker.
The perfect English script sees Anderson breaking the record in an Oval victory with Broad not being restricted by his Phantom of the Opera impression.
