Jofra Archer marked his Hundred debut with a wicket and a victory as Southern Brave breezed past London Spirit in Wednesday night’s men’s match in Southampton.<\/p>\n

The England bowler – who missed the first three seasons of the tournament due to a horror run with injury – dismissed Andre Russell one ball after being hit for six by the West Indian in Brave’s seven-wicket win at the Utilita Bowl.<\/p>\n

Archer recorded figures of 1-24 from 20 balls as Brave restricted Spirit to 138-9, with Craig Overton taking 3-16 from 20 balls and Chris Jordan and Tymal Mills bagging two wickets each.<\/p>\n
