After England showed their hand for the T20 World Cup in the week, Jofra Archer fired up his Instagram live, transporting anyone who clicked to the sunshine of Barbados. It was a hardworking net session firing down white Kookaburras alongside Chris Jordan, his friend being the second headline recall on the day.

Before Archer made that stirring Test debut at Lord’s five years ago he requested Jordan present the cap, CJ nailing the speech like a trademark yorker as his young sidekick swelled with pride.
