England fast bowler Jofra Archer is highly enthusiastic when it comes to gaming. He has often posted videos on his social media accounts of his gameplays.

Archer, who will be playing IPL 2020 for Rajasthan Royals, is looking for a new gaming console. He wants XBox UK to gift him something and asked the number of wickets he needs in IPL to assure a new gaming console from them. 

Xbox UK came up with a cheeky response for Jofra and told him to pick just one wicket, and that's of Australia batsman David Warner.

Archer has troubled Sunrisers Hyderabad's Warner a lot in the recently concluded limited-overs series between the two teams. He got the Aussie out twice in the T20I and twice more in ODI in six innings. In the Ashes last year, the England pacer had got Warner out thrice. 

“How many wickets this tournament [IPL 2020] for a new Xbox?”, wrote Archer. To which, the video gaming brand responded, “Just 1...David Warner”.

Even Stuart Broad responded to the comment and posted emoji of raising one hand as if he wants one too.

Needless to mention, Broad has an outstanding record against Warner. He got the Aussie out 7 times in 10 innings during last year's Ashes. Warner ended with an average of 9.5 in the series.
