Jofra Archer has outlined his ambitions for the World Cup ahead of his England comeback.
The seam bowler has not played for the national side since March 2021 having battled an elbow injury and then suffering a stress fracture of his lower back, which ruled him out over last summer. It has been a nightmare run of injuries for the 2019 World Cup winner, but his long-awaited comeback is set to take place during the upcoming ODI series with South Africa.
Having experienced the agony of missing the last two T20 World Cups, Archer is thrilled to be back in contention to help England defend the 50-over world title later this year. “I can’t imagine sitting down and watching another World Cup on TV. I’ve watched two in two years and I don’t want it to be three," the 27-year-old the the ECB official website.
