The talented but polarising 30-year-old has been suspended from the
final round of New Zealand's domestic competition after admitting a
charge of serious dissent while playing for Otago against Northern
Districts last weekend.Media reports said Ryder unleashed a torrent of abuse after being caught behind and it was believed there was damage to a changing room following his tirade.
"Ryder did not dispute a charge of serious dissent, including the use of offensive language," New Zealand cricket said in a statement following a disciplinary hearing on Thursday.
"He was subsequently suspended, subject to appeal, from playing in the 10th round of the Plunket Shield."
Ryder, often a match-winner for New Zealand on the field has had numerous off-field issues involving alcohol.
He has not played for the Black Caps since February last year when he went on a late-night drinking session in Auckland before the start of a Test series against India.
