Cricket: Archer in England’s team for third Test against India

# Cricket: Jofra Archer will make his long-awaited return to Test cricket at Lord’s this week, after more than four years of injury-induced exile. He was included in England’s side for the third Test against India in place of fellow fast bowler Josh Tongue in the only change to the team that suffered a 336-run thrashing by India at Edgbaston. Lord’s holds happy memories for Archer, who bowled the World Cup-winning ‘Super Over’ there in 2019 before returning later that season to make a stunning Test debut against Australia.
