Watch: Jofra Archer Gives Furious Send-Off To Rishabh Pant At Lord's
@Source: news18.com
Jofra Archer gave a furious send-off to Rishabh Pant after getting his wicket at Lord’s during the third Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy Test on Monday (July 14).
It happened in the 21st over of India’s innings. On the third ball, Pant had jumped down the crease and carved Archer’s ball for a beautiful boundary down the ground. The pacer corrected his length and also targeted the stumps better from thereon. On the fifth ball, he went wide of the crease and angled it straight into the left-hander. The ball came in naturally before seaming away off the pitch to take the top of the off-stump.
Pant was caught trying to defend it straight and before he could understand, Archer was running past him, shouting something angrily in his ears. Watch it all here:
Stumps knocked back! ?

This Test has had some needle in it since the third day, when Shubman Gill and Co. got angry at Zak Crawley and Ben Duckett for what they felt was time-wasting to avoid facing more than one over before Stumps. There was some finger-pointing between Gill and Crawley, a chest-to-chest between Gill and Duckett and a lot of words said by Siraj from his fielding position.
It carried on the fourth day when Siraj sent off Duckett, and Nitish Kumar Reddy did the same to, Crawley. Siraj also landed in trouble because of his act, as the ICC felt that his shoulder barge with Duckett while celebrating was in breach of their Code of Conduct.
“Siraj admitted the offence and accepted the sanction proposed by Richie Richardson of the Emirates ICC Elite Panel of Match Referees, so there was no need for a formal hearing,” a statement from the ICC said.
The two teams were on opposite ends of the time-wasting drama, with Akash Deep trying the same thing before stumps on Day 4. At that time, Ben Stokes went to KL Rahul and clapped — just like Gill did to Crawley — sarcarstically.
India will now need KL Rahul and the all-rounders to take them to victory on a difficult pitch.
