The man who racially abused England pacer Jofra Archer during their tour of New Zealand has been handed a two-year ban from attending international & domestic matches in the country.

A 28-year-old man from Auckland admitted abusing the pacer during the 1st Test after a police investigation & was issued a verbal warning for using insulting language.

New Zealand Cricket (NZC) spokesperson Anthony Crummy extended their apologies to Archer & England team again.

"We'd again like to extend our apologies to Jofra & the England team management for such an unsavoury incident & reiterate once more that this type of behaviour is completely unacceptable," ESPN Cricinfo quoted Crummy as saying.

"We want to thank the New Zealand police for their efforts in identifying the person responsible, & for making it clear that this type of behaviour willn't be minimised," he added.

If the man breaches the ban then he could be subject to police action again.
