Quotes from Jofra Archer

It's a World Cup, there's no easy games in this tournament.

It's not true that modern cricketers only want to be white-ball cricketers. Because I had a good World Cup that doesn't mean I only like World Cup cricket.

When you have an operation, you are altering the body. You are going into a perfectly fine piece of tissue and when you do so, you can invite all sorts of complications. The intention might be to solve one thing, but it can mess up others.

I'm pretty sure Michael Holding doesn't know anything that is going on behind the scenes.

There is nothing worse for a bowler than knowing you cannot give your all. If you try to, you can mess yourself up for the future, so you are torn between that and protecting your body. You simply cannot do both.

When I saw the bidding start a few teams were going at it, and I was thinking 'wow I'm actually going to get to go to India for sure,' so I was even happier than when the bidding started because I knew for sure that at least I would get to be associated with a franchise.

If someone wants to shout at me and tell me I'm bowling badly, that's fine. I may not agree but it's fine. It's part of the experience of being a touring cricketer.

When tournaments are on the horizon, I feel teams in general and particularly England get stronger because everyone wants to show they should be in the XI.

I've played in tournaments around the world, and had success, but winning a Test is one of those indescribable feelings, especially against a really good team. Nothing compares.

It was pleasing to see Jon Lewis confirmed as England's new bowling coach. I actually lived with Jon for a couple of years as part of the deal when I first signed for Sussex.

Do I want to play Test cricket? Yeah, yeah. I've got a few milestones I'd like to achieve - so I very much want to play Test cricket.

As long as you are faithful to your game plan and have the skills to deliver it, most of the time you will be all right.

I've watched so many old games played on 'Sky Sports.' My feelings are that watching something played live really should pique some interest.

I guess I am pretty much like Bumrah, with my yorkers and slower balls.

Bumrah's action is a bit awkward, so you don't see his slower balls. He can trick you with pace. He is a lot quicker than he looks.

In bowlers' meetings we talk a lot about patience here in India. You need that more than anywhere in the world. Outfields are fast, pitches are slow, the ball gets soft. Bowlers are more crucial than batters.

When Test cricket is good, it's amazing, the best, even if it is more taxing on the body and is a lot more mentally taxing.

Don't expect any miracles, I can only come in and do what I can and give my best. I can't work miracles but I will try to.

Seeing someone go down, you don't ever want to see anyone getting carried off on a stretcher or you don't want to see anyone missing a day or another game.

I don't need to run in and bowl 90mph every spell to get wickets.

If there are three seamers, we don't need to be bowling long spells. Either way, it doesn't matter to me whether I am going to be bowling short or long spells.

No one will bowl at 90mph all day every day. There will be spells when you have to bowl within yourself.

To be straight, if I play and don't bowl 90 miles an hour it's going to be news. If I don't bowl 90 miles per hour for long enough it's going to be news. If I don't put my left sock on first, it's going to be news. I understand that is the scrutiny of playing at this level and being in that spotlight.

I'm not too sure how it will go but I think whenever I do get the chance to bat I can just show what I can do and hopefully with a lot of performances I could squeeze my way up the order a bit.
