• Bowler could be available in 2019 if eligibility period shortened
• England play Scotland in one-off ODI in Edinburgh on Sunday
Eoin Morgan has poured cold water on Jofra Archer making his World Cup squad next summer should the highly rated fast bowler’s England qualification be fast-tracked.
Archer was born in Barbados but despite holding a British passport is midway through a seven-year wait to become eligible for selection. The 23-year-old, who plays for Sussex, will be available in 2022 provided he is in the UK for 210 days each year between now and then.
