Jofra Archer, a Barbadian-born English cricketer representing England and Sussex, is one of several cricketers who believe in openly expressing their thoughts. Usually, these kinds of cricketers are active on social media these days. The same goes for Jofra Archer. His tweets have made him a popular figure on the internet as he expressed his honest thoughts and reactions on various topics.
But as we all know that using the internet for celebrities means they have to face their haters every day. While many cricketers chose not to say anything to these online trolls, Jofra Archer had to do something different. The cool bowler has a knack for dealing with haters.
The English bowler has been out of cricket for a long time owing to injury, but despite having the little possibility of participating in IPL 2022, he was bought for Rs. 8 crores by the IPL franchise Mumbai Indians. He announced his availability for the IPL 2023 in an interview with MI, and he is really happy to be a part of a team that treats its players like family members. But this time, he is not in the news for his gaming skills. Let’s have a look at why is he in the news.
Jofra Archer’s gentle but clever reply made him viral on Twitter
As we all know that whenever someone trolls Jofra Archer, he will definitely fire back with a bang on the troll. The same happened this time too.
The English pacer recently tweeted on the microblogging site Twitter that he would never buy another dog from the United Kingdom. He wrote,
“Never getting a dog from the uk again”

Despite the fact that he is a huge dog lover, we don’t know the circumstances in which he sent this tweet, one internet user used it as a chance to mock the cricketer. To troll him, one user wrote while adding laughing emojis,
“MI bought one for 8 cr”
And as we all know that Jofra Archer is a calm person who didn’t lose his cool after reading such a cheap tweet. That’s why he responded with a beautiful response that must have made the troll humiliated as well. He said,
“I hope you get the love you deserve one day”

Before this, Jofra Archer voiced his displeasure several times on Twitter because of being racially abused online. He has also raised his voice on several controversial cricket occasions.
Let me tell you that Jofra Archer has been a key member of England’s bowling unit, and since his injury, the squad has lost a state of the art, as seen by the team’s performance in the current Ashes series against Australia. While he makes his comeback in the game by playing in IPL for Mumbai Indians, I think trolling someone is the worst thing can anyone do, especially when he is going through a critical phase in his life.
In terms of MI, the five-time champion is having a terrible season in the IPL 2022, lying at the bottom of the points table with only three victories in its first 12 games. What’s more intriguing is that the two most successful teams (Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians) are ranked 9th and 10th, respectively, while the two new IPL clubs (Gujarat Titans and Lucknow Super Giants) are ranked 1st and 2nd.
