New Delhi: After making a successful return to Test cricket through England’s 22-run win at Lord’s, England fast bowler Jofra Archer said he is keen on playing the remaining Tests against India so that he can prove he deserves a place in the squad for the Ashes trip in Australia.

 Archer made his Test comeback at Lord’s after four years and claimed five wickets as England clinched a tight victory over India to go 2-1 up in the five-match series being played for the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy.

But England will still be careful about Archer’s workload because of elbow and back injuries previously hampering his availability in the longer format.

“I can play the other two if they let me. I don’t want to lose this series. I told Keysy (ECB managing director Rob Key) that I wanted to play the Test summer and I wanted to play the Ashes. I think one tick is already there and I will do everything possible in my power to be on the plane in November, or just before,” said Archer. IANS
