Archer, Root to Miss Out ODI Series Against India

London: Fast bowler Jofra Archer will not be a part of the England squad for the three-match ODI series against India, for which a 14-member squad was announced on Sunday. England Test captain Joe Root has also been excluded from the squad.

The three-match series will be played in Pune on March 23, 26 and 28.
