    "editor1": "<p>England fast bowler Jofra Archer took two wickets in his first competitive match for almost two months in a County Championship game for Sussex against Kent on Thursday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The 26-year-old has been recovering from a long-standing elbow injury and also had surgery on his right hand to remove a piece of glass from a cut he suffered while cleaning a fish tank.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Archer will be hoping to be fully fit for England&#39;s two Test matches against New Zealand next month.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;My fitness is fine,&quot; said Archer, who played for the Sussex 2nd XI last week.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;I thought I bowled okay. I played in the second team last week and it&#39;s good to get some confidence and I felt fine.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;I bowled in short spells for protection in case we had a long day but it was overcast, which helped a bit. There was a bit of management, but it all worked out.&quot;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>He claimed the first two wickets to fall at Hove, dismissing England team-mate Zak Crawley and Kent skipper Daniel Bell-Drummond as the visitors were bowled out for 145.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Archer finished with figures of 2-29 from 13 overs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>England have a busy schedule for the remainder of the year, with the New Zealand games followed by a five-Test series against India, ahead of the T20 World Cup in India and the Ashes in Australia.<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n",
