Jofra Archer to join England camp after second negative coronavirus test
Jofra Archer will join up with England’s training camp at the Ageas Bowl on Thursday after his latest COVID-19 test came back negative.
Archer initially stayed away from the get together after he reported a member of his household feeling unwell on Tuesday.
The 25-year-old paceman had been showing no symptoms and had been counted among a full house of 702 negative cases reported by the England and Wales Cricket Board, but was required to undergo an additional test on Wednesday.
