Archer Returns as Bumrah Misses Second India Test
Jofra Archer has been named in England's squad for the second Test against India at Edgbaston, marking his return to Test cricket after over four years sidelined by elbow and back injuries. Archer recently played a four-day match for Sussex as part of his rehabilitation, taking one wicket and expressing optimism about his readiness. Former captain Nasser Hussain called Archer's recall a 'gamble worth taking' but advised caution, suggesting his full return could be timed for the third Test at Lord's. England, who lead the series 1-0 after winning at Headingley, have strengthened their pace attack with Archer, Chris Woakes, Josh Tongue, and Jamie Overton. India will be without star pacer Jasprit Bumrah for the second Test due to workload management, potentially benefiting England. Mark Wood, also recovering from injury, is eager to partner with Archer but stressed that both must prove fitness and form to secure selection.
