Jofra Archer Had 'Wonderful Game' Against South Africa: Michael Atherton

By IANS News February 02, 2023 • 15:52 PM View: 912

Former England captain Michael Atherton was impressed with the immediate impact made by Jofra Archer in his early days of coming back to the international cricket arena during the side's 59-run win over South Africa in the third ODI at Kimberley.

After captain Jos Buttler and Dawid Malan hit centuries in the match against the Proteas, Archer, playing just his second international match after being on the sidelines due to back and elbow injuries, ran through South Africa's top and middle order to pick career-best figures of 6-40 in his 9.1 overs and carry England to victory.
