England fast bowler Jofra Archer says he wants to play in the 2025-26 Ashes series in Australia as he plots his return to Test cricket.
Archer has not featured in the longer format since February 2021 having been hampered by back and elbow injuries over the last three years.
“I am going to use the rest of this year to make sure that is at least a possibility,” Archer said, when discussing the next Ashes tour. “I’m tired of going on Instagram and seeing posts saying ‘he’s going to be on the physio’s bed in the next two weeks’ and stuff like that.
“I want to spend the rest of the year proving some people wrong and hopefully play in another Ashes.”
Archer was a star of England’s 2019 World Cup-winning campaign, bowling the super over in the final victory against New Zealand. (BBC sport)
