Anderson said: "Kuldeep edged one down to third man for a single and as he got to the non-striker's end and as I was walking back to my mark, he said, 'I'm going to be your 700th wicket'.
"He wasn't saying he was trying to get out, he was just saying he had a feeling. We both laughed at it."
Anderson had moved to 699 wickets on day two by bowling Shubman Gill for 110 after exchanging words with the India batter.
"I said something to him like, 'Do you get any runs outside India?' and he said, 'It's time to retire'," added Anderson.
"Then two balls later, I got him out."
