England captain Eoin Morgan on Monday said Jofra Archer has proved to be an 'X-factor' in his short career so far but insisted that the best of the tearaway pacer is yet to come.
Archer was rewarded with a central contract for Test and white-ball cricket by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) recently for his superb performances in the ODI World Cup and the Ashes.
And, Morgan was full of praise for the 24-year-old fast bowler, stating that Archer managed to overcome every obstacle that was thrown on him to make his name in world cricket.
"I think it is fantastic. Jofra is very exciting to watch and he bowls fast and has an X-factor. He can bowl in any format of the game and any circumstances and to any plan," Morgan said.
"Every obstacle that is being put in front of him, he overcame that. We haven't seen the best of him, he still wants to learn all the time."
