Azeem Rafiq’s sister Amna was called a “fit Paki” by his Yorkshire teammate Tim Bresnan while she was on work experience, a Cricket Discipline Commission hearing into racism at Yorkshire County Cricket Club has heard.
In written testimony to the CDC, which is examining charges against six Yorkshire players and staff for improper or prejudicial conduct, Rafiq said he felt “angry and embarrassed” for not saying anything when the alleged incident – in which the language used, the hearing was told, was racist and/or discriminatory – occurred in April 2014.
