Jofra Archer named in England XI to face India at Lord's

We've made one change to our XI ahead of the third Test match of the series.

The England Men’s selection panel has made one change to our XI to take on India at Lord's.

The series is finely poised at 1-1 following India's 336-run victory at Edgbaston on Sunday.

The 30-year-old right-arm quick returns to the England Test team for the first time since February 2021 and will make his 14th cap.
