England seamer Jofra Archer has been ruled out of the two-match Test series against New Zealand starting next month.

Archer, who returned to action for Sussex in the County Championship against Kent this week at Hove, only bowled five overs in Kent’s second innings. He was suffering from pain in his right elbow when bowling and was unable to bowl in the final two days of the match.

“The England and Sussex medical teams will now seek guidance, and Archer will see a medical consultant later this week to determine the next course of action on the management of his elbow,” England and Wales Cricket Board said in a media release.
