Heartache, comebacks & predicting the future - the story of Archer's return
Saqib Mahmood is one of Jofra Archer's closest friends in cricket.
"With Jof the easiest thing for him to have done is just gone purely white ball," Mahmood tells BBC Sport.
"He'd have been financially better off and had all of that. But I could always tell he wanted to play Test cricket. I just knew it."
Mahmood could be proven right next week after Archer was called into England's squad for the second Test against India. After an injury-ravaged four and a half years, Archer is back on cricket's biggest stage.
