Jofra Archer has been training with Sussex this week, on his way to recovery.
In a video posted on their official Twitter account, the 2019 World Cup-winning pacer was bowling with full force during a net session. Jofra Archer was seen bowling full over to the batsman.
He started the over with a brutal bouncer that grounded the batsman as he tried to get out of the way. The batsman lost his balance and was seen lying on the pitch. The pacer then bowled five fiery deliveries that left the batsman awestruck.
Jofra Archer cleared to train after his hand surgery, confirms ECB
“How many runs would you get off this @JofraArcher over?” Sussex Cricket captioned the picture.
Earlier ECB released an official statement and informed about Jofra Archer’s withdrawal from IPL 2021. The Board said that they along with Sussex medical teams will continue to monitor his progress.
"Archer will now step up his training regime starting next week and will be in full training with Sussex. It is expected that he will return to cricket in the next fortnight if he can continue to bowl and prepare pain-free. The ECB will confirm which matches he is expected to play in due course," ECB said in a statement.
With England having a packed schedule later this year, they would be hoping Jofra Archer to recover soon. The pacer is likely to be back playing cricket in a fortnight if he can bowl and train without any pain.
