Joe Root Says He 'Cannot Recall' Instances Of Racism At Yorkshire
England captain Joe Root said Monday he stood by his statement that he could not recall witnessing any instances of racism at Yorkshire as English cricket grapples with the fallout from the scandal.
The game in England has been rocked by damaging revelations from Pakistan-born former Yorkshire player Azeem Rafiq, who made a number of allegations against high-profile figures.
Rafiq said he found Root's denial of ever hearing racist language "hurtful" when he gave harrowing testimony to lawmakers earlier this month concerning abuse he suffered over two spells at the county.
