Paceman Jofra Archer's breach of bio-secure protocols could have been a"disaster" and ended up costing the board tens of millions of pounds, England and Wales Cricket Board director of cricket Ashley Giles has said.

England dropped Archer from the second test against the West Indies following the breach, announcing the decision only hours before the start of the match on Thursday.The ECB did not state the nature of the violation but media reports said the Barbados-born 25-year-old exited the bio-secure bubble to go to his flat in Brighton after the series opener in Southampton.

"The potential knock-on effect I don't think he could have understood. He's a young man, young men make mistakes. He has to learn from them."
