Credit To Archer For Hardwork Done And Be In Position To Play Tests Again: Woakes
Archer last played Test cricket for England in February 2021, before missing red-ball games due to a series of elbow and back injuries. After recently marking his return to first-class cricket by taking 1-32 in 18 overs for Sussex against Durham in the County Championship, Archer was added to England's squad for the second Test at Edgbaston.
“It’s great. I mean, brilliant for Jofra, brilliant for us as a team. Obviously, it's a big boost to have him back. When Jof's around, he adds a lot to the group, not just as a player, but as a person, as a character. He's obviously had a tough journey over the last few years with his injuries, and I think it's a credit to him, the hard work that he's put in to be able to be back in this position now, to be able to hopefully play Test cricket again.”
