Jofra Archer will continue his rehabilitation from a back injury by training with the England Lions squad in the United Arab Emirates next month.
England fast bowler Archer has not played any cricket since July 2021 after being sidelined by a stress fracture of his back.
The paceman has not seen action for his country for 19 months, having also been out due to a long-standing elbow problem.
Archer is now eyeing a return and will step up his recovery in a camp in the UAE from November 11 to 27.
