The fiery pacer, Jofra Archer is known for his searing pace, which will be missed by the Rajasthan Royals (RR) in the 2021 edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL), and the batsmen can breathe a sigh of relief. England bowling sensation Jofra Archer has confirmed that he is sure to miss the first half of the IPL, as he needs time to recuperate from an elbow injury.

This will surely come as a jolt for RR as Archer’s pace and his unrelenting accuracy had troubled quote a few batsmen in the 13th edition of the IPL. He was the leading wicket-taker for the Rajasthan outfit in the previous season and had scalped 20 wickets at an average of just 18.25.  And now, the 2008 IPL champions will be looking to find a replacement for the England pacer. Let us take a look at 3 players who can replace Jofra Archer for the 2021 IPL edition.

3. Jason Behrendorff

One possible replacement that the Rajasthan side could look for is left-arm pacer Jason Behrendorff. Behrendorff, who is known for extracting extra bounce off the surface. He also has the ability to move the new ball and his awkward left-arm angle can trouble the willow wielders. He had an impressive outing in the 2020-21 edition of the Big Bash League (BBL).

Turning out for the Perth Scorchers outfit, he scalped up as many as 16 wickets at an excellent strike rate of 19.80. Behrendorff has also played 5 matches in the IPL and has picked up 5 wickets. The Rajasthan side already has the likes of Andrew Tye, Jaydev Unadkat, Chris Morris, and Mustafizur Rahman in their squad. And surely, Behrendorff will be a welcome addition to the side.
