Jofra Archer
Jofra Chioke Archer (born 1 April 1995) is an English cricketer who represents England in all formats as a right-arm fast bowler. In domestic cricket he plays for Sussex as well as a number of T20 franchises. Archer was a member of the England squad that won the 2019 Cricket World Cup. In April 2020, Archer was named as one of the Wisden Cricketers of the Year.
Jofra Chioke Archer was born on 1 April 1995 in Bridgetown, Barbados. His father Frank Archer is English and his mother Joelle Waithe is Barbadian. He holds British citizenship through his father. Growing up, he attended Christ Church Foundation School in Bridgetown.
Archer moved to England in 2015, and initially would not have been eligible to play for England until the winter of 2022. The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) rules stated that as he did not live in England until after his 18th birthday, he needed to complete a seven-year residency period. Archer played for West Indies Under-19s three times in 2014, but had signalled his intention to make himself available to England once his residency period was complete. However, in November 2018, the ECB announced a change to its rules, reducing the eligibility period from seven years to three to bring it into line with ICC regulations.
Archer made his first-class debut for Sussex during Pakistan's tour of England in July 2016, and his List A debut later that month against Gloucestershire, in the 2016 Royal London One-Day Cup.
Archer was bought by the Khulna Titans in the 2017 BPL season. Archer played for Hobart Hurricanes in both the 2017–18 and 2018–19 Big Bash League seasons.
He was signed by the Quetta Gladiators as a replacement for Carlos Brathwaite in the 2018 Pakistan Super League draft. He made his PSL debut against Karachi Kings and took 2 wickets. He played two matches in total and pulled out of the remaining tournament due to a side strain.
He was bought by the Rajasthan Royals in the 2018 IPL auction for £800,000. Archer then made his Indian Premier League (IPL) debut on 22 April 2018, against the Mumbai Indians when he took three wickets and was named the player of the match.
During a 2018 t20 Blast match against Middlesex in August 2018, Archer took a hat-trick in the final over of the game.
