England fast bowler Jofra Archer expressed his sadness over missing the 2021/22 Ashes due to injury, saying that the trip to Australia is something that a fast bowler wouldn't ever want to miss. Archer has been out of cricketing action since August this year due to the recurrence of a stress fracture in his right elbow.
"It was a tough one to take in seeing the ball seaming and bouncing about a bit... Jeez, this is really one cricket tour as a fast bowler that you don't want to miss," said Archer in a chat with Channel Seven during the tea break at The Gabba.
The 26-year-old also shared an update on his progress from the elbow injury. "I think the second last bit of scans got done. The results came out just yesterday and it is looking quite promising, actually. Everything is moving forward nicely. It is just a matter of waiting a little bit more and being a little bit patient. I'm almost at the end of the road."
