Jofra Archer joined England’s practice session at the Oval, keeping alive prospects of him travelling to next month’s World Cup as a reserve

Despite the fact that Archer has not played a competitive game since 6 May, and last took a wicket in April, England continue to hope he will be able to travel to India at the end of the month as one of three reserve players, and potentially play at some point in the tournament.
Both Adil Rashid, who missed the second game on Sunday with a calf issue, and Dawid Malan, whose son Dawid was born on Saturday, also trained on Tuesday. Meanwhile Archer worked with Andrew Flintoff, whose own recovery from injury – in his case, a near-fatal car crash while filming for the BBC’s Top Gear last December – has allowed him to take part in several training sessions“He’s a legend of the game, I grew up watching him play and just to have him here with us is fantastic,” said Willey.
“Me staying fit, touch wood, is probably an asset to the group with guys who sometimes struggle with niggles and things,” he said.
