Jofra Archer- An exciting new talent
Jofra Archer came into the IPL with an injury

One of the most talked about players before the start of the IPL, Jofra Archer's arrival to the IPL was much awaited. After missing the initial matches due to a side strain, the Englishman took the IPL by storm.

In his first match against Mumbai Indians, he rattled MI's much-fancied batting line-up. His two overs at the death yielded just four runs and five runs respectively. Importantly, it was the three wickets that he picked up which changed the complexion of the game. For his performance, he was awarded the Man of the Match in his first game in the IPL.

He has paid back handsomely the Rs. 7.2 crores that RR paid for him with his pin-point yorkers, and his athletic fielding. In the three matches that he has played, he has picked up 7 wickets at an economy rate of 7.

His addition to the IPL got the fans excited and his energy, along with his signature celebration style has grabbed eyeballs and made him the latest star in the IPL.
