England Cricket Captain Heather Knight Reprimanded Over 'Blackface' Photo

By AFP News September 24, 2024 • 07:57 AM View: 396

England women's cricket captain Heather Knight has been reprimanded and given a suspended £1,000 ($1,300) fine after a historical photograph of her in "blackface" emerged on social media.

Knight, set to lead England at next month's Women's T20 World Cup in the United Arab Emirates, said she was "truly sorry" for conduct that was deemed "racist and discriminatory" by Cricket Discipline Commission adjudicator Tim O'Gorman.
