The Professional Cricketers Association (PCA) will become the latest members of cricket’s hierarchy to give evidence to parliament’s DCMS committee over the racism scandal that erupted at Yorkshire CCC but has touched the entire sport.

The session, to be held next Tuesday, will be the third time cricket has been forced to sit down in front of Julian Knight’s panel in as many months. It follows Azeem Rafiq’s original testimony in November last year, and appearances from the ECB’s Tom Harrison and county chairs – Mike O’Farrell et al – last month.
