The fiery Rajasthan Royals (RR) fast bowler, Jofra Archer had entered a deal with the Xbox UK with their official Twitter handle wanting him to dismiss David Warner in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 in a bid for the player to win the latest edition of the Xbox. That was a deal talked over Twitter on September 18, a day before the start of the 13th edition of the tournament. 

Three weeks later, in RR’s game against Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Dubai International Stadium on Sunday, Archer did not just get his man, he managed to earn himself the new Xbox. It wasn’t a surprise when Warner’s compatriot and opposition skipper, Steve Smith handed the new ball to Archer.

Warner was dismissed four times by Archer in the recently-concluded limited-overs series between England and Australia. On Sunday, Warner’s struggle against Archer continued as the Aussie managed only three runs in eight balls against him before being dismissed. 

Ahead of the tournament, Archer asked, “@xboxuk how many wickets this tournament for a new Xbox ?” The brand had replied, “just 1… @davidwarner31”.

And moments after the end of SRH’s innings in Dubai, Xbox UK replied to Rajasthan Royals’ post on Archer-Warner rivalry asking the English fast bowler to send his address.
