Australia's cricket board has apologised to survivors of child sexual abuse who were involved in the sport and called on its members to join a national redress scheme.
The apology comes weeks after jailed former cricket coach and convicted paedophile Ian King had nearly three years added to his sentence over an historical sexual offence involving a teenage boy.
Cricket Australia's chair Lachlan Henderson said historical child sex abuse was "an appalling issue" that society and many sports, including cricket, were grappling with.
