Morris to lead pace attack for RR in absence of Archer
Chris Morris, the most expensive player in the history of the Indian Premier League (IPL) auction, said it would be an additional responsibility to spearhead Rajasthan Royal’s fast bowling attack in the absence of injured Jofra Archer in the upcoming season but it would not change his role in the team. England’s Pacer Jofra Archer will not be able to play in the first half of IPL due to an elbow injury during England’s Tour of India which will be a setback for the Rajasthan Royals campaign.
Star Allrounder who was bought by Rajasthan Royals at a whopping price of 16.25 crores in February 2021 said“Every single team that I have played in the IPL, my role has been with the new ball and at the death. That doesn’t change. I have always had fast bowlers in the team and I’ve been there supporting act,”
“It won’t be a new role if I am leading an attack, won’t be new if I am supporting. There is a little bit of responsibility when it comes to leading the attack. But like I said since it wouldn’t be able to be alien to me,” Morris added.
The 33-year-old is excited to play for RR and looking focused to win IPL.Attachments area
