Archer has not played competitive cricket since last May while Jordan missed out on the winter tour to the Caribbean.
England are ready to include Jofra Archer in their T20 World Cup squad after a year out through injury, while the experienced Chris Jordan is also back in the frame.
As well as knowing the terrain, and being a close friend and confidant of Archer, Jordan remains an impeccable fielder and has captaincy experience. Question marks had started to creep in over Jonny Bairstow’s place after an indifferent run of form over a gruelling winter, but after regaining his place in the Punjab Kings side he struck a thunderous 108 from 48 balls against Kolkata Knight Riders last Friday, steering his side to a world record T20 chase.
He could benefit directly from Ben Stokes’ decision to declare himself unavailable for the World Cup by taking up a place in the first-choice XI and picked a perfect time to peak with a 41-ball century for Royal Challengers Bangalore just 24 hours before the selectors made their final deliberations.
