(Reuters) -The All Blacks will be without Jordie Barrett for the remainder of their Northern Hemisphere Tour due to ankle and knee injuries picked up in the win over Ireland last weekend, New Zealand Rugby said on Tuesday.

Barrett went off after 16 minutes of New Zealand's 26-13 victory in Chicago on Saturday after hurting his ankle and knee in a tackle when an Irish player fell on him.

The 28-year-old had already been ruled out of Saturday's test against Scotland, along with his brother Scott, also injured against Ireland, but Jordie will now return to New Zealand to begin rehabilitation.

New Zealand will also play England on November 15 and Wales one week later.
