England fast bowler Jofra Archer had a brilliant reply to an abusive user on Twitter. There were some comparisons been made on social media between India’s young pace sensation Prasidh Krishna and Archer after the former’s match-winning performance against West Indies in the second ODI in Ahmedabad.
Krishna rattled the West Indies batters with his terrific hard length and short length bowling, claiming stunning figures of 4/12 in 9 overs out of which three were maidens. His lean frame, hard length bowling, pace – all these made up for his parallels to be drawn with Archer by fans.
Amid this, one user wasn’t happy with all the comparisons of Archer and Krishna. And he chose to use some poor words for Archer, reflecting upon his own mindset as well.
The fan tweeted: “Please don’t compare hard-working, honest Prasidh Krishna with that fraud, unfit, traitor, race card player Jofra archer.”
Seeing this ugly tweet by the user, Jofra Archer though politely responded: “I hope you heal.”

This response from the fast bowler won the internet and fans showered more love on the Barbados-born speedster, forcing the user to delete his foolish tweet.
As far as Jofra Archer is concerned, the fast bowler is currently in his recovery process after undergoing a second elbow operation last year. After missing the T20 World Cup and the Ashes, he will miss the tour to West Indies as well.
Archer, who bowled the Super Over in the 2019 World Cup final, played his last professional game in July last year and has been sidelined due to his long-time elbow injury issue, and his absence was felt by England in both the T20 World Cup and the Ashes.
The 26-year-old pacer has, though, registered himself in the IPL 2022 mega-auction, even though he is unlikely to feature in the tournament this year. Franchises may look at him as a player to keep for the future and bid for the Archer.
