The Mumbai Indians fans are crossing their fingers that England’s fast bowling sensation Jofra Archer will be fully fit and game-ready for the IPL 2023, which is anticipated to begin in the final week of March.

Injuries have ruined Archer’s career. Before being sidelined due to a back stress fracture, Archer last competed for England in March of last year.

Mumbai Indians purchased him for INR 8 crore in the IPL 2022 mega-auction despite being aware of his injury status and the fact that he would not be participating in the IPL 2022. They did this in an effort to secure their fast-bowling future and provide their fans with the much-desired fast-bowling duo of Archer and Bumrah in the IPL 2023.

Notably, Archer’s chronic elbow injury kept him from playing cricket for a significant portion of 2021. He was unable to attend the IPL and which prevented him from competing in the just-finished Men’s T20 World Cup in 2022.

Meanwhile, after bowling in the UAE, Archer stated that returning to the Test team is his top priority, but he would not rush things “Obviously to get back to the first team is my number one priority but also getting back there as safely as possible,” he said as quoted by IndianExpress.

“I’d rather take these last few months very seriously, more serious than probably all of the rehab because once this phase goes right then it can set me up for the next three to four years injury-free.”

“I would love to play every game, but I don’t think the physio would let me. Our squad is strong enough that I can play all formats all year round,” Jofra Archer Added.

Archer will play for MI Cape Town in the inaugural SA20 tournament in South Africa in January as part of his comeback. He will then probably play in the ODI series in South Africa.
