When fully fit, Jofra Archer is one of the finest bowlers in world cricket and can trouble the best batters with his raw pace and byte off the surface. In the last couple of years, the fast bowler suffered a string of injuries and missed some big tournaments like the IPL and World Cup 2023, but he is back now and is looking at his best after a long time.

In the fourth ODI between England and Australia, Archer picked a two-wicket haul, and his scalps included big wickets of Mitchell Marsh and Glenn Maxwell. The wicket of the Australian skipper, Marsh, was off a perfect delivery. It was a good-length delivery, angling into the right-hander from off. Marsh tried to defend it, but the ball straightened after pitching and beat the outside edge of his blade to knock over the off-pole.

Dream Delivery From Jofra Archer

It was a dream delivery as the ball hit the top of the off-stump, and the Aussie skipper was left shell-shocked by the quality of the rapid delivery by the pacer. It was an important wicket in the context of the match as Australia were chasing a huge total, and after Marsh's dismissal, Australia just could not handle the pressure of the chase and kept losing wickets at regular wickets.

The visitors were eventually bowled out for just 126, and England crushed the reigning world champions by 186 runs. The win helped the home team level the series after losing the initial two matches, and it was Harry Brook, the young skipper who once again displayed his class by hammering 87 off 58 balls. Livingstone also smashed 62 off 27 balls and the stage is now set for an enticing decider on Sunday in Bristol.
