Jofra Archer has quit the Indian Premier League early due to another flare up of the elbow injury that has plagued his career.
The 28-year-old fast bowler has headed home for a period of 'rest and rehabilitation' after his most recent bout of surgery on the joint just weeks ago failed to ease the pain and discomfort he has been feeling while bowling.
It is a desperately sad situation for Archer who has been battling with pain in his right elbow for almost four years which has severely limited his involvement with England following his breakthrough summer. And it surely leaves England's plans to use him as their strike weapon this year in tatters.
