Archer Named In England's Provisional Squad For T20 World Cup

By IANS News December 30, 2025 • 13:24 PM View: 491

The T20 World Cup: Jofra Archer has been named in England's squad for the T20 World Cup despite missing the last two Ashes Tests due to injury, as the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) announced the Harry Brook-led provisional squad for the upcoming T20 mega spectacle and the white-ball series against Sri Lanka.

England play three ODIs and as many as T20Is in Sri Lanka in the build-up to the T20 World Cup, starting from February 7 in India and Sri Lanka.

Archer, who is still recovering from a side strain sustained during the third Ashes Test in Adelaide, however, will not be part of the Sri Lanka tour.
