Jofra Archer took 3 wickets on his debut

Jofra Archer was absolutely sensational in the Big Bash League while playing for Hobart Hurricanes. The 23-year-old all-rounder took 16 wickets in 12 games at an economy rate of 7.96. He can even bat at the end of the innings. He had a strike rate of 137.96 in the BBL.

He had a dream start to his IPL career as he took 3 wickets for just 22 runs on his debut. He got his Yorker right on target in his last over to dismiss Hardik Pandya and Mitchell McClenaghan. He is a live-wire in the field and a great athlete. If he continues his form then he will definitely be a contender for the Emerging Player Award this year.
