Archer's reaction after Head's wicket (AP Photo)
During the England vs Australia clash of the T20 World Cup 2024, Jofra Archer struck gold as he sent Travis Head packing after he bowled an absolute peach. This wicket came at the right time for England, as Head scored 34 runs off just 18 balls at an outrageous strike rate. He smashed two boundaries along with three maximums and was looking in sublime touch.

In the 6th over, Archer bowled a length delivery attacking right at the stumps. Head backed up a little to make room and freed his arms as he tried to slash it in the off-side. However, he swung it too hard since the ball didn't bounce as Head hoped for, and the ball snuck under his bat and disturbed the poles.
A very good comeback by Jofra Archer as he removed the budding 'Head-ache'. With this both the Aussie openers were sent back and AUS were at 97/2.
