Azeem Rafiq believes being the key witness in a public Cricket Discipline Commission hearing examining his allegations of racism will make life worse for him and his family, but said: “I just don’t see an end to this unless that happens.”
The 31-year-old has been clear about his desire to stage the hearing in public since the England and Wales Cricket Board charged a number of individuals over allegations of racism he raised, and charged Yorkshire over their handling of those allegations, back in June.
