Jofra Archer has been precluded until the mid year subsequent to going through a second operation on his harmed right elbow, the nation’s cricket board (ECB) said on Tuesday.
Jofra Archer said in August that he expected to be fit for the test series against the West Indies in March 2022 after being ruled out of the current year’s Twenty20 World Cup and the Ashes due to a stress fracture in his right elbow.
The 26-year-old went through an operation in May to eliminate a bone fragment from his elbow.
“The England and Wales Cricket Board can confirm that fast bowler Jofra Archer underwent a second operation on his injured right elbow on Saturday 11 December in London,” the ECB said in a statement.
“The procedure addressed the long-standing stress fracture of his right elbow. A return to cricket will be determined in time, but Jofra will not be available for any of England’s remaining Winter series.”
Jofra Archer last played for England against India in a Twenty20 match in March.
