Jofra Archer Ruled Out of Ashes 2023 Due to Stress Fracture

Jofra Archer's injury wooes continues

Fast bowler Jofra Archer was ruled out of the Ashes on Tuesday due to a stress fracture in his right elbow, as England announced their Test squad for the upcoming match against Ireland. The 28-year-old Sussex quick, who recently played in the Indian Premier League, will not play again “for the rest of the summer,” according to the England and Wales Cricket Board.

“Recent scans revealed he has sustained a recurrence of a stress fracture to his right elbow,” the ECB statement read. “He will now spend time with the England and Sussex medical teams, who will work on his injury management.”

England will play Ireland in a four-day Test starting on June 1 at Lord’s, followed by a five-match Ashes series against Australia later that month.

Yorkshire wicketkeeper-batter Jonny Bairstow is now fully fit after recovering from breaking his left leg and dislocating his ankle during a round of golf, and he is back with England for the first time since last August, which means Ben Foakes is out. Warwickshire seamer Chris Woakes returns, while Durham fast bowler Mark Wood returns after a break from the New Zealand tour.
