According to England managing director Rob Key, Jofra Archer could feature in the upcoming T20 World Cup but won’t participate in test cricket until 2025 due to an ongoing elbow injury. The 29-year-old hasn’t represented England in any format since March 2023. Key stated on Sky Sports that Archer’s focus this summer will be on white-ball cricket. Archer’s career has been hampered by injuries, with his last test match appearance dating back to the 2021 India tour. Key mentioned Archer’s recent participation in Sussex’s pre-season in India, where he displayed impressive pace. Archer is now in the Caribbean, preparing for the T20 World Cup, with hopes of featuring in the Pakistan T20 series in May, although his fitness remains a concern. Key emphasized the cautious approach taken to ensure Archer’s long-term fitness.
