England bowler Jofra Archer admits he may not be able to cope with any fresh injury problems, revealing 바카라I don바카라t know if I have another stop-start year in me바카라. (More Cricket News)
Archer has been plagued by a litany of fitness problems since bursting on to the international scene in 2019 but is on the comeback trail with hopes of featuring in June바카라s T20 World Cup in the United States of America and his native Caribbean.
The seamer is not yet certain if he will make the tournament, having last played competitively 11 months ago following a repeat stress fracture in his right elbow, but insists avoiding further setbacks is crucial.
The mental and physical toll has been considerable on Archer and he accepts another breakdown could be one too far.
바카라It바카라s been a while and honestly, I don바카라t know if I바카라ve got another stop-start year in me. That바카라s the truth, I don바카라t know if I바카라ve got another one,바카라 he told the 4Cast바카라s Athlete바카라s Voice podcast.
바카라I haven바카라t played cricket for a whole 12 months as yet. Last year I played from January to May. I think the year before that, I played maybe one or two games for Sussex, so you know I바카라ve had a whole year of nothing.바카라
England are taking a cautious approach with his latest return, taking an early decision to withdraw him from the Indian Premier League and pre-emptively ruling him out of the rigours of Test cricket until next year.
Instead they hope to unleash him in familiar territory in the West Indies, where they will look to defend their 20-over crown.
He shares that ambition but is refusing to count on it.
바카라Come the first game in June I really do want to be in the team. The last two years have been really stop-start, so I just think that, you know, everyone바카라s going to just take it a bit easy,바카라 he said.
바카라If I바카라m ready then fine, happy days, but if I바카라m not they바카라re still supporting me. Worst-case scenario, I don바카라t really want to think about this, but even if I don바카라t make it to the World Cup for whatever reason, there바카라s still the T20 Blast, there바카라s still The Hundred.
바카라There바카라s still cricket that I haven바카라t got a chance to play in the last couple of years, so as much as I want to play in the World Cup, if it doesn바카라t happen for whatever reason, at least I still know I could be somewhat active.바카라
And if Archer does manage to pull an England shirt back on during their visit to his home island of Barbados, he is expecting to see some friendly faces in the crowd.
바카라I know it바카라s not dog friendly in the Caribbean as much as it is here in the UK, but I바카라d love my family and my dogs at that first game back,바카라 he added.
