The fast-bowling sensation, who was born in Barbados, played for Windies U-19s in 2013. Post that, Archer has been playing for Sussex in the County Championship since the last couple of years.
Moreover, the 22-year-old has been the find of the season in this year's BBL, picking up 15 wickets in 11 games. Playing for Hobart Hurricanes, he grabbed his best figures of 3/15 against Strikers while clicking 145 km/h regularly, thereby stealing all the limelight.
