Former players say England risks injury if they choose JOFRA ARCER for the fifth test
England will quickly endanger Jofra Archer for fresh injury if they choose it for the fifth and last match against India in Oval this week, according to former tests of Stuart Broad and Nasser Hussain.
Archer is participating in his first test series in four years after overcoming elbow and back injuries.
The 30-year-old sat in the first two games before claiming five wins in his return to the format on the Lord and four to the manchester test withdrawn.
WHEREAS INDIA can draw the series with a win in oval, told Broad Sky Sports that England should give preference to Archer’s long -term fitness.
“We can’t have Archer for four years, bring it back and then take it to the ground and not see it for another four years,” He said.
“(Josh) the language started the series, and I know that he mostly got lower order players, but you probably have a natural replacement for Archer.”
England has added fast Bowling Jamie Overton to their tedious rhythm battery.
Chris Woakes and Brydon Carse have played all four rehearsals, while Skipper Ben Stokes said he would do “Run across a brick wall” Trying to be available for the final test that begins on Thursday.
Gus Atkinson and the language are likely to appear in the last crucial test, and England is likely to rest Archer with the ASHES series against Australia at the time of four months.
“I don’t think you can have Archer playing three in bounce turning after four years,” Former England captain Hussain told Sky Sports.
“Gus Atkinson returning after a long time, and then stock with a noise like three of your four sailors – but I would definitely play Atkinson on his land at home if appropriate.”
