England pacer Jofra Archer hasn't had a good time on and off the cricket field. Ever since Archer was axed from playing XI against West Indies for the second Test for breaching Covid-19 protocols, he received online abuses. He had opened up about the negativity on various social media platforms.

Archer has returned to the side now. In fact, he got to lead the team out at the start of the play in the first Test against Pakistan at Manchester. It seems like some English fans couldn't digest it. They didn't like Archer got the honor to lead out the team.

The Barbados-born responded to one such fan who was criticizing the move to let him lead out the team. “I'll let you know right now Oliver, today was a special day and people like you won't ruin it,” Archer tweeted. 

He added, "I’ll let you know right now Oliver, today was a special day and people like you won’t ruin it ????????".

Archer's teammate Ben Stokes joined in support of him. He applauded Archer for calling out the keyboard warrior. "This ????????... ???? ???? @JofraArcher for exposing him, quickly made everything private..keyboard warriors ????‍♂️ ", wrote Stokes.
