Jofra Archer removed Yashasvi Jaiswal in his first over of the Lord’s test.
England Cricket Team fast bowler Jofra Archer has been breathing fire with the ball in the ongoing third test against the Indian Cricket Team. The game between the two teams is taking place at the Lord’s Cricket Ground in London.
Jofra Archer, who is making his test comeback after four long years, made an instant impact. The premier fast bowler struck in the first over that he bowled as he removed Yashasvi Jaiswal, and with that, the crowd at the Lord’s Cricket Ground erupted in joy.
While Archer didn’t get any success after that, he made sure that he made Indian batters dance to his tunes. The England pacer bowled impeccable lines and lengths and troubled the Indian batters, not allowing them to score runs easily.
Jofra Archer’s best came in the 73rd over of the Indian innings when he had his tail up. The fast bowler was breathing fire with the ball and bowled the fastest spell of his career. He clocked around 150 kmph on all the deliveries as he looked in great shape.
Nitish Kumar Reddy and Ravindra Jadeja, who were batting at that time, looked clueless against Jofra Archer as they were seen hopping and ducking under the fiery short balls.
