The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) announced that star fast bowler Jofra Archer, who is part of the Rajasthan Royals franchise, will not play in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021.
The 26-year-old pacer suffered a cut to his hand in January shortly before flying to India to prepare for the Test series. He underwent surgery to get rid of glass pieces that had penetrated his right middle finger while cleaning a fish tank at his home.
The ECB said in a statement said that Archer will now step up his training regime starting next week and will be in full training with Sussex. It is expected that he will return to cricket in the next fortnight if he can continue to bowl and prepare pain-free.
Meanwhile, the Rajasthan Royals was seriously hoping that the pacer would be available, at least during the crucial phase of the tournament.
