(Reuters) - England opener Jason Roy has been handed a suspended two-match ban for "conducting himself in a manner which may be prejudicial to the interests of cricket" and bringing it into disrepute, the country's cricket board (ECB) said on Tuesday.

The ECB or the Cricket Discipline Commission (CDC), the body that hears disciplinary cases in the domestic game in England and Wales, did not specify the incident he had been charged for.
