Jofra is a true West Indian running down IPL. Englishmen say they well compensated to go for that

 
Raskil 2025-03-26 16:15:59 

Some serious pace here!

Jofra Archer [2.0-0-15-0] is back into the attack

This would be a great time for the Englishman to redeem himself after last game's mauling

17.1
Jofra Archer to de Kock, FOUR, short of length onto off stump, de Kock with a very well controlled pull between mid-wicket and mid-on. Runs away for four

17.2
Jofra Archer to de Kock, SIX, short and angling onto the body, de Kock steadies for a big pull shot and slams it behind square into the stands. Into single digits now...
17.3
Jofra Archer to de Kock, wide, wayward, a full toss wide outside off
17.3
Jofra Archer to de Kock, wide, full, quick and angles down the leg side. Neat take by Jurel
17.3
Jofra Archer to de Kock, SIX, game, set, match! A pitched up delivery at the stumps, de Kock gets under it, clears his front leg and slams it over long-on for a maximum. He stays not out at 97, KKR win by 8 wickets.

Jofra Archer to Gaikwad, no run, stands tall and punches this short of length delivery to point. Jofra begins with a wicket-maiden for RR. Wow!

0.4
Jofra Archer to Ravindra, out Caught by Dhruv Jurel!! This was on the cards. He was never connecting those away-going balls. Jofra was only trying to move everything away from Rachin and offered nothing full. Rachin kept staying leg-side and trying to cut/guide with the swing. Missed twice but Jofra's got him on the third attempt. Healthy outside edge and Jurel pouches it neat and Jofra has his first wicket of the IPL. RR have made a massive statement here. They have got a form batter out for CSK. The one batter who was able to score in both games.

Ravindra c Dhruv Jurel b Jofra Archer 0(4)

Stat:
Archer had gone wicketless in his four previous IPL outings, returning 0/189 in 14.3 overs combined at an ER of 13.03.

 
Narper 2025-03-30 16:25:33 

2.6
Jofra Archer to Tripathi, no run, beaten on the inside edge! Short of a length delivery nipping back in, Tripathi was troubled by the pace and the nip back in off the surface. He is living dangerously against Jofra

Punjab Kings vs Rajasthan Royals, 18th Match -

0.1
Jofra Archer to Priyansh Arya, out Bowled!! Knocked him over. Dream start for Jofra Archer who leaps and punches the air in delight. Superb seam presentation from Archer, no deviation on the seam at all as it comes out of the hand, bowls it on a back of a length on middle, it curves away just the hint off the seam and opens up Priyansh Arya, he looks to defend and the ball hits the top of off-stump. Beaten on the outside-edge and squared up slightly, no feet and the stumps are alighted. Priyansh Arya b Jofra Archer 0(1)
0.6
Jofra Archer to Shreyas Iyer, out Bowled!! Two breathtaking shots and this is just a crude hack. No wonder Shreyas Iyer missed it. He shakes his head as he walks back. No need for that shot with the way he was batting recently. Totally out of character from him, a lapse in concentration. Full on the stumps, he backs away and slogs, lost all shape and misses, the stumps are found. Jofra Archer is pumped and runs away to his left to celebrate. Shreyas was the man in form for PBKS and that is a body blow.

Shreyas Iyer b Jofra Archer 10(5) [4s-2]

Billiant bowling

19.6
Jofra Archer to Ferguson, FOUR, the last ball goes for four and it's a fumble from Sandeep at square third man.

19.5
Jofra Archer to Arshdeep Singh, out Caught by Hasaranga!! Straight to cover. Arshdeep Singh makes room and drills the full delivery on middle low and to the cover region, Hasaranga with a sharp catch. Smiles all around in the RR camp.

Arshdeep Singh c Hasaranga b Jofra Archer 1(5)

19.4
Jofra Archer to Shashank Singh, 1 run, full down leg, flicked to deep backward square-leg and they take one
19.3
Jofra Archer to Shashank Singh, no run, the furious short ball now, at Shashank Singh who looks to have got an top-edge on the pull, cannons into the body? Shashank does not know where the ball is, it is gone behind him, the physio comes out to have a concussion check which is mandatory
19.2
Jofra Archer to Shashank Singh, no run, a slower-ball on a length outside off, Shashank Singh slogs and misses, does not carry to Samson
19.1
Jofra Archer to Shashank Singh, no run, length delivery on off, flicked down to long-on and Shashank Singh does not take the run

Gujarat Titans vs Rajasthan Royals, 23rd Match -
2.1
Jofra Archer to Shubman Gill, out Bowled!! Cleaned up! That's Archer at his best. Even Gill goes uhhh as he walks back. 147.7ks full delivery around off, Gill is drawn into the forward push and he is a tad late on the shot, the ball also nips in to beat the inside edge and crash into off-stump.

Shubman Gill b Jofra Archer 2(3)

 
Narper 2025-04-09 14:20:31 

Jos Buttler, right handed bat, comes to the crease
2.2
Jofra Archer to Buttler, no run, greeated with a pacy short ball. He even walks up and has a word with Buttler. Well-directed bouncer, Buttler sways out of the line and allows it to sail over him. This is exciting stuff..

17.6
Jofra Archer to Sai Sudharsan, 1 run, Shubham Dubey the impact sub has dropped a sitter. Sanju looks down in frustration. Archer looks away! Was a smart short ball with pace off, Sai managed to belt that pull though. Hit it so hard and flat, went straight to deep backward square leg who wasn't alert enough. Gee, it didn't even hit his palms. Hit him near the right wrist
