Jofra Archer vs Vaibhav Sooryavanshi: English express bowler Joffra Archer has become a big puzzle for Indian young sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi in the ongoing T20 series against England. Even in the fourth match of the series, Joffra Archer once again showed the way to the pavilion by completely dodging the 15 year old batsman with his fiery balls. This is the second consecutive incident of Suryavanshi kneeling in front of Archer in this series.
Archer again hunted Vaibhav Suryavanshi
Team India won the toss and decided to bat first at the County Ground in Bristol. Vaibhav Suryavanshi also managed to get a good start by scoring 15 runs in 10 balls. But Joffra Archer once again did not allow his innings to go much further. When Jofra Archer came to bowl in the third over of the Indian innings, he tied down the young Suryavanshi with his pace. On the fourth ball of the over, Archer bowled a back-of-the-length ball slightly outside the off-stump, which rose rapidly after being hit. The excessive bounce and speed of the ball completely cramped Vaibhav.
Despite this, Suryavanshi came in line and tried to play a big shot. But due to lack of proper contact with the bat, the ball rose very high in the air and could not even cross the 30-yard circle, where the fielder standing at mid-on took the catch without making any mistake. With this, Vaibhav’s innings once again came to an anti-climax end. Let us tell you, during IPL 2026, when Archer was asked about his bowling plan against Vaibhav Suryavanshi, he gave a funny answer. Archer had said, ‘I will tell you after IPL.’ And now he has been successful in taking the wicket of Vaibhav in 2 consecutive matches.
Something similar happened in the last match also
Vaibhav Suryavanshi is continuously losing wickets in this series due to his aggressive mentality. In the last match, when the Indian team was chasing the huge target of 202 runs, Vaibhav started playing quick shots as soon as he came to the crease. In his short innings, he also hit 2 skyscraper sixes while attacking the English bowlers. But he was out after scoring 13 runs in just 5 balls.
In that match too, it was Joffra Archer who made him his victim during the third over. Archer had bowled a sharp short pitch ball on the line of leg stump at a stormy speed of 145 kilometers per hour. Suryavanshi tried to play a hook shot on it, but the speed of the ball was so high that he completely missed the timing. The ball left the edge of the bat and touched the gloves and fell into the hands of wicketkeeper Jos Buttler. Even in the previous match, he was able to score only 14 runs.
