Mistakes are inevitable in the field, and it's important to show patience towards teammates. However, Jofra Archer didn’t quite display that during the Rajasthan Royals' game against Lucknow Super Giants when he let Shubham Dubey down by dropping a costly catch of Nicholas Pooran.

‌Riding high after a loss to CSK, Lucknow skipper Rishabh Pant won the toss and chose to bat first. However, the decision backfired as opener Mitchell Marsh was dismissed in the third over by Jofra Archer. Just as Archer was demonstrating his skills, Lucknow found themselves at 30/1 after four overs when Shubham Dubey committed a major blunder.

On the fourth delivery of the fifth over, Archer bowled a good-length delivery targeting the stumps. The Caribbean star swung across the line, getting a top edge that soared into the night sky. Dubey settled under the high ball at mid-wicket, but he wasn’t in the right position to make the catch. He got fingertips to it, but made a mess of the high catch, and gave Pooran a life. The English pacer, visibly agitated, reportedly asked someone from the Rajasthan team, “Who is he?” The Twitterverse quickly picked up on Archer’s reaction, with fans taking to social media to discuss the incident.
