Jofra Archer is set to rejoin England’s Test squad for the third match of the series, replacing Josh Tongue. His return brings lightning pace as England look to counter India’s dominance after Edgbaston.
Ben Stokes summed it up: Archer is very, very determined and shows through his crisp reply, Been ready. His few words mask a fierce desire to perform.
Despite sparse playing time, Archer’s raw talent has been a game-changer before. Stokes believes that Archer’s skills and attitude set him apart: He’s a skilful bowler with impact.
With India’s batting firing and England’s offense under pressure, Archer’s fiery bounce could shift the momentum when it matters most.
