Jofra Archer returns as England announces squad for ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024

London, April 30 (UNI) After months of anticipation and speculation, England has unveiled its squad for the upcoming ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024, with the notable inclusion of fast bowler Jofra Archer marking his return to international cricket after a prolonged absence due to injury.
Archer, whose last appearance for England dates back to March 2023, has battled through various setbacks, including stress fractures and elbow problems, as well as an unexpected surgery following a bizarre fish tank accident. His return will undoubtedly bolster England's bowling attack and add depth to their squad ahead of the tournament.
Experienced all-rounder Chris Jordan also secured his spot in the squad, marking his comeback to the international arena after his last appearance in September 2023, further strengthening England's lineup with his versatile skills.
