Jofra Archer makes U-turn, to return for IPL 2025 Mega Auction

Initially, Archer’s name was conspicuously absent from the 574-player list for the IPL Auction 2025. The ECB had initially withheld Archer’s NOC, citing concerns over his workload as he makes his way back from injury.

The pacer has been struggling with injuries over the past couple of years, and the ECB had hoped to manage his recovery with a focus on Test cricket. But Archer was not pleased by this decision and was eager to make his comeback in the IPL, a competition that has always showcased his incredible skills.

As negotiations between the BCCI, ECB, and Archer’s agents intensified, it finally resulted in a U-turn. Archer has now been given the green light to feature in the auction, and it’s safe to say, IPL franchises are on the edge of their seats, waiting to bid for one of the most devastating pacers in world cricket.
