इंग्लैंड जोफरा आर्चर के बारे में चिंतित, स्टुअर्ट ब्रॉड चाहते हैं कि गस एटकिंसन उसे बदल दें

England are 2-1 up and had a chance to go 3-1 up at Manchester, but were outplayed by exceptional Indian batting. They were forced to bowl over 100 overs in both innings, respectively, and has left England management with some serious questions, over the fitness of the pacers. Speaking on Sky Sports, Stuart Broad has said that Jofra Archer should not play in the Oval Test.

Jofra Archer Needs to be Preserved

He also suggested Gus Atkinson as the potential replacement. “I think Gus Atkinson has to play. I know he has not had any workload, but we need to see him. He hasn’t been really challenged against top-level opposition in Test cricket yet,” Broad said.

“[Brydon] चौथे टेस्ट में कार्स ने नैक किया। वह एक त्रिकोणीय रहा है और पूरी तरह से सब कुछ दिया है, लेकिन ऐसा लगता है कि उसके पैरों ने उसे इस श्रृंखला के लिए छोड़ दिया है, इसलिए एटकिंसन को सिर हिलाता है। उन्होंने जोश टोंग्यू के बारे में भी बात की, जो लीड्स में खेलते थे। “[Josh] जीभ ने श्रृंखला शुरू की, और मुझे पता है कि वह मुख्य रूप से कम-क्रम वाले खिलाड़ियों को बाहर कर देता है, लेकिन आपके पास शायद आर्चर के लिए एक प्राकृतिक प्रतिस्थापन है।

गस एटकिंसन एक संभावित प्रतिस्थापन

“We can’t not have Archer for four years, bring him back and then bowl him into the ground and not see him for another four years.” Even though Oval Test is the deciding match for the series, Nasser Hussain feels, that Archer shouldn’t be risked for now, since there is an Ashes series coming up soon.

“I don’t think you can have Archer playing three on the bounce coming back after four years,” added Sky Sports’ Nasser Hussain. “Gus Atkinson coming back after a long time, and then Stokes with a niggle as three of your four seamers – but I would definitely play Atkinson on his home ground if fit.”
