Axed Yorkshire coach Andrew Gale 'charged by ECB over historic anti-Semitic tweet'

Former Yorkshire head coach and captain Andrew Gale has reportedly been charged by the England and Wales Cricket Board over a historic anti-Semitic tweet.

Gale was sacked by Yorkshire in December and is one of seven individuals who have been charged by the ECB following an investigation into Azeem Rafiq's allegations of racism.

However, Gale was initially suspended by Yorkshire after a historic tweet emerged where he used an anti-Semitic slur and the Telegraph are reporting that the 38-year-old has now had an additional charge filed against him by the ECB, and that Gale refused to attend his own disciplinary hearing.
