So far in the current series, Archer has bowled 88.3 overs in four innings and during this time he has been able to take only 9 wickets. If Archer is out of the fifth Test match, then England has many bowling options to replace him and the Ashes are also to be held this year. For this reason, Stuart Broad wants Archer to be given rest and kept fit for the Ashes series.
