However, it’s highly unlikely that the star pacer will be participating in the Indian Premier League 2022 tournament as he is still recovering from the elbow injury and is not fully fit to compete. Archer is expected to play the 2023 and 2024 seasons of the Indian Premier League so the teams will be looking at him as the future investment.

“The ECB has registered Archer for the auction with a view to potential participation in 2023 and 2024, as due to his current injury it is unlikely that he can participate in IPL 2022,” the BCCI wrote to the franchises providing a list of 44 new names that have been added to the register.

He won’t feature in the Marquee or other sets to be presented. He will be available to be called during the accelerated auction and whoever picks him will not get a replacement player for IPL 2022 season for his place as he is already injured and unlikely to participate in IPL 2022 season,” the BCCI has written to IPL franchises, the Cricbuzz has reported.
