Jofra Archer out of the first Test, but the selector signs of return; When will you play – know the plan
England vs India Test Match: England have announced the team for the first Test against India, but Jofra Archer is not named in Squad. But the story does not end here. England selectors have given interesting indications about his return. If everything goes well in a special match, Archer can again be seen in the English Test jersey.
The five -Test series between India and England is going to start soon and before that England has announced its team. The 14 -member squad consists of several big names, but the absence of Zofra Archer caught everyone’s attention.
Jofra Archer has been troubled by injuries in the last few years. He last played Test cricket in 2021 and that match was against India in Ahmedabad. Since then Archer has been continuously fighting the battle of fitness. Recently, he had hurt his finger while playing in the IPL, due to which he was also out of the ODI series against the West Indies and the Red-Ball matches against India A.
Now England selector Luke Wright has told that Archer can play for the second XI team of Sussex this month. If he performs well in the match against Durham and remains fit, he can be selected in the England team for the second Test. Luke Wright said, “Jofra Archer’s progress is going well. The plan is to play some matches of the second team and get down against Sussex against Durham. If everything is right, he can get a place in the England team in the second Test.”
England fans are very excited about the return of Jofra Archer, as there is an ex-factor in her bowling that can turn the match at any time. Now everyone’s eyes will be on whether they return to the test this time and stay away from injury or not.
