Azeem Rafiq has called for cricket's structures to be "rebuilt" in the hopes of ending institutional racism "for good" after the Cricket Discipline Commission (CDC) announced their verdict on racism charges brought against a number of individuals.
While former England captain Michael Vaughan was cleared of the charge against him, Tim Bresnan, John Blain, Andrew Gale, Matthew Hoggard and Richard Pyrah were all found liable of using racist and/or discriminatory language.
In a statement, Rafiq said: "Charges against seven of the eight defendants, including the widespread use of the ‘P’ word, have been upheld by the CDC today. This comes in addition to the other reports, panels and inquiries that found I and others suffered racial harassment and bullying while at Yorkshire.
