Jofra Archer heads into the second Test against New Zealand on Thursday after the toughest week of his fledgling international career and with an already bright spotlight on him having increased as a result of reporting racial abuse.
New Zealand Cricket was still investigating the incident on Tuesday after Archer tweeted that he had been the target of a racial slur from a spectator at the back end of England’s innings and 65-run defeat in Mount Maunganui.
