(MENAFN- Gulf Times) Former England captain Michael Vaughan denied making a racist remark when he was skipper of Yorkshire but told the BBC yesterday he apologises to his accuser ex-teammate Azeem Rafiq if he was“responsible for any of his hurt”.
English cricket has been rocked by revelations of racism from Pakistan-born Rafiq.
He gave harrowing testimony to lawmakers this month in which he said his career had been ended by the racist abuse he received while at leading English county Yorkshire. These have included an allegation Vaughan told the now 30-year-old Rafiq and other Yorkshire players of Asian origin there were“too many of you lot, we need to do something about it” during a county match in 2009.
