Jofra Archer was recently in the headlines for his performance for Hobart Hurricanes in the Big Bash League in Australia.

In the ongoing BBL season he has been consistent, taking wickets in almost every match.

In 35 T20 matches, he has taken 44 wickets in the shortest format of the game.

Back in 2016, Archer was signed by English County side Sussex,m where he finished as their leading wicket-taker in the 2017 County season.

Along with Jofra Archer, Australia’s D’Arcy Short was also a new entrant to the IPL, who was also signed up by the inauguaral IPL champions.

The upcoming IPL season will kick off on April 7 and will go on for more than a month, with the final on May 27.

Amazing money

Big issue may be looming for Jofra Archer, Sussex and England. If he is picked up in PSL replacement draft tomorrow, he could spend so much time outside UK this winter (BPL, Big Bash, PSL, IPL) that he fails to meet 210 days a year residential requirement to qualify for England

Quetta Gladiators picked Sussex's rising sensation Jofra Archer as a replacement for allrounder Carlos Brathwaite who will miss the Pakistan Super League (PSL) and will instead play for West Indies in the World Cup qualifiers in March. Archer's Sussex team-mate Tymal Mills was roped in by Karachi Kings in place of former Australia quick Mitchell Johnson, who had pulled out of the tournament, citing personal reasons.

In a replacement draft held in Lahore on Monday, all six franchises tweaked their roster, replacing players unavailable for various reasons ahead of the third edition of the league, scheduled to be played from February 22. Only five players who had been originally drafted in will miss the tournament in its entirety - Johnson, Brathwaite, Luke Wright, Angelo Mathews and Colin Munro. The other replacement players have been brought in as cover for players who are partially available.

West Indians regardless of their domicile
appears to be unable to qualify for their country !
rules need to be changed ...
