SA vs ENG: England Seamer Jofra Archer Likely To Miss Cape Town Test

England are already mulling dropping one seamer in favour of a spinner due to the pitch in Cape Town which lacks the grass seen in Centurion

England seamer Jofra Archer is likely to miss the second Test against South Africa with the seamer reportedly having a sore elbow. Archer was one of the few bright spots in otherwise a dismal performance by the visitors during the first Test at Centurion, picking up six wickets while the team lost by 107 runs. According to ESPNCricinfo, Archer bowled only six balls during training on Wednesday in Cape Town before the elbow acted up, raising concerns as to whether he can recover in time for the second Test which will start on Friday. England are already mulling dropping one seamer in favour of a spinner due to the pitch in Cape Town which lacks the grass seen in Centurion and is relatively dry. It could very well be Archer who gets the drop if England are looking to be conservative with him with two more Tests left to be played in the series.
