I don’t know which game will be the next game, but I’m just trying to put myself in the best position possible [to play],” Archer stated in a dialog with Cricinfo.

“To be sincere, I nonetheless need to bowl quick and stuff – however while you really feel good, you bowl good. I simply need to deal with feeling good on the minute. It’s an excellent franchise and hopefully, I get the chance to win a couple of video games for them. We’ve gained extra video games than we’ve misplaced which is miles higher than what we did final yr, so every little thing goes properly and the temper within the camp is sweet”, the pacer additional added.
Despite the damage setback, Archer stays dedicated to his staff and appears ahead to taking part in an instrumental position in Mumbai Indians’ quest for his or her sixth IPL title.
