• Kit description

The almost completely sky-blue top comes with stripes across the shoulders in different shades of blue, with red weaved between the lines.

Earlier this week, the selection of the poster boy Archer came in as no surprise as many cricket experts predicted that the all-rounder will be picked up in the England squad for the 2019 World Cup. The Barbados-born speedster, 24, was named in the 15-man group at David Willey's expense.
