Jofra Archer has been quite famous for his tweets which have a spooky resemblance with the present situation. Right from Super Over in the CWC 2019 to England walking away with the World Cup trophy, Jofra had predicted it a few years ago. Now, in October 2013, Archer had posted a tweet about making a way in the squad for the match. A netizen dug up Archer’s account and brought to surface the old tweet ahead of the second game of the Ashes 2019. Jofra Archer Posts a Cryptic Tweet Ahead of Test Debut in Ashes 2019; Netizens Question 'When Should We Use This Tweet' to England Pacer.
Jofra Archer received a cap for the second Test today at Lord’s Cricket Ground. The day one of the match got washed out due to rains. The Australians won the first game by 251 runs at the Edgbaston Cricket Ground. It was Chris Joran who handed over the Test cap to Archer ahead of the second game. Check out the tweet below:

Here’s the video of Archer receiving the Test cap.
🗣 @CJordan: “I know this is the pinnacle for you. One of the first things you said to me when you came over to England was you wanted to play Test cricket for England. That time has come.”

Joe Root while speaking about Archer’s debut said, “He (Archer) is certainly very confident and that’s great to see in a young guy, as he should be after the World Cup. And, as he made very clear, it’s his preferred format so again I’m very excited to see at the start of his journey,” Root said at Lord’s on Tuesday. Jofra and all the cricketing fans must be praying hard for the rain Gods to stay away.
