England’s director of cricket Rob Key said,
“Our plan is to be the T20 World Cup, building him up slowly. I saw him bowl in the Caribbean, and it was like he had never been away. I don’t want to get back to this thing where he plays and then goes down again.”
“He wanted to play in the IPL, but we said not this time. Hopefully, the years he has missed, he can add to the end of his career. He is such a talent.”
The right-arm England pacer has been plagued by injuries for the last three years. After that he made a comeback in white-ball cricket and playing three T20I’s and four ODI’s in the first quarter of 2023.
