Jofra Archer is recovering from surgery on his right elbow
English tempo bowler Jofra Archer said he was “a month” away from full fitness after throwing three overs in Sussex’s T20 Blast win over Kent.
“I’m still a month away from where I want to be, but tonight was a good start,” Archer told BBC Radio Sussex.
“I played with a bit of restrictions. I want to be free of restrictions in a month.”
Archer had numbers from 0-20 from his 18 deliveries as Sussex booked a quarter-final in Yorkshire on the T20 Blast.
“The plan was to play tonight. I’ll spend the next few days deciding what’s next,” he added.
“We’ll see how much I can take. Today was a tick. I’m happy with that.”
Archer has competed in 13 Tests, 17 one-day caps and 12 T20s for England and was part of the team that won the 2019 World Cup.
England host India in a five-test series starting August 4th. You will then play at the T20 World Cup in October and face an Ashes winter series in Australia.
