Mark Wood must be wondering when Archer is going to start bowling quick.
Graham, Essex
Imagine Mark Wood bowling in tandem with Jofra…. Can’t wait!

Three singles from the third Chris Woakes over, with India's batters finding runs on the leg side.

That Jofra return reminded me of the return of Ian Botham after his ban in the mid 80s... scripted to take wickets as soon as he got hold of the ball.
Steven, happy in Jofra Wonderland, Kettering
KL Rahul pushes Jofra Archer's first delivery into the covers for a single and is likely grateful to be down the other end as the England seamer sends down five dot balls in the low 90s to Karun Nair.
Rahul got lucky - the ball he faced was a mere 88mph.

These are the five highest totals made by a side batting first at Lord's who then went on to lose the Test:
England closed their first innings on 387.

Anyone else feel a bit emotional watching Archer celebrate that wicket? What a release after four years of disappointment - and a fantastic ball too!
Che, West Bridgford, Notts.
KL Rahul and Karun Nair both get off the mark at the start of Chris Woakes' second over, with a single to mid-wicket and two through point respectively.
Nair then faces the remaining four deliveries of the over without scoring, with Woakes twice beating his outside edge.

CricViz analyst
Archer is back with heat. His last delivery in Test cricket back in February 2021 clocked at 82 mph. First ball back today zipped through at 87 mph, just a couple of deliveries later and he picked up the wicket of Jaiswal with 89 mph.

Missed you, Jofra.
John (Archer, too) in Bath.
Welcome back Joff! Fairytale stuff!!!!

Oh Jorfa! How I've missed you!

Watching Archer there was like four and a half years of frustration, he just exhaled it all.
Karun Nair pushes the final two balls of the over away without scoring, to hand Jofra Archer a wicket maiden on his return to Test cricket.

BBC Sport journalist at Lord’s
Now there are gasps as Archer’s speeds are shown on the screen.
Out walks Karun Nair in difficult circumstances, having not passed 31 in the series and with the crowd roaring Jofra Archer on.
Archer sends a bouncer past the batter's head - the speed gun has that at 93mph.
Jonathan Agnew
BBC Chief Cricket Commentator on Test Match Special
Caught at second slip!
What a return for Jofra Archer. The England team are all around him and the crowd are on their feet.
What a moment. Sometimes sport throws up these remarkable scripts and you can't write them.
Matthew Henry
BBC Sport journalist at Lord’s
This is proper.
Cheers as Archer removes his cap. Oooos as the first ball is delivered. Another roar after the ball beats edge and now everyone on their feet.
Tear in your eye?
Jaiswal c Brook b Archer 13 (Ind 13-1)
'What a moment!' - Archer dismisses Jaiswal on his third ball back
Jofra Archer has a wicket with his third ball!
He draws the edge from Yashasvi Jaiswal and it's a simple catch for Harry Brook at second slip, taking the ball between his legs.
Archer wheels away in delight, fists pumping - what a return to Test cricket!
And indeed here comes Jofra Archer for his return to England's Test attack.
He gets a cheer from the crowd as he approaches his run-up.
Charges in, and Yashasvi Jaiswal fends him to point.
Isa Guha
Former England bowler on BBC Test Match Special
What a start. We talked about it being a new ball pitch but Yashasvi Jaiswal is not having any trouble at all.
Jaiswal hits three fours off Woakes in opening over
Two more fours for Jaiswal off Woakes' third and fourth delivery.
The India opener steers the ball through the cordon and then tips one off the pads.
A single through point makes it 13 through the over.
Matthew Henry
BBC Sport journalist at Edgbaston
Chris Woakes and Jofra Archer have done some bowling during the interval. Brydon Carse has not. Archer to take the new ball on his return?
