NEW DELHI: English speedster
Jofra Archer
showcased his all-round prowess in the semi-final of the
BCA T20 Cup Championship
in Barbados.
Archer not only excelled with the ball, picking up 3 wickets for 16 runs but also shone with the bat, scoring a blistering fifty.
Archer's batting exploits were particularly impressive, as he smashed 54 off just 20 balls, including 4 fours and 5 sixes.
His explosive innings propelled
Wildey
to a formidable total of 191/6.
Archer then backed up his batting performance with a fiery spell of fast bowling, rattling the opposition batters with his pace and accuracy.
In a viral video from the match, Archer's vicious delivery left the batter beaten for pace and bounce, with the ball crashing into the stumps.
Watch:
After watching the display of sheer pace from Archer, one fan wrote, "I hope that batsmen reach the pavilion without losing their lives."
Wildey eventually bowled out their opponents for 157, securing a 34-run victory, thanks in large part to Archer's contributions with both bat and ball.
Following his selection in England's squad for the upcoming
T20 World Cup
in the USA and West Indies, Archer's impressive performance in the BCA T20 Cup Championship comes as a timely boost for the 29-year-old, who has been plagued by injuries in recent years.
