What is the Independent Commission for Equity in Cricket report?
In March 2021 the English and Wales Cricket Board asked an independent panel to examine discrimination and inequity in cricket in the wake of the murder of George Floyd and a consequent renewed focus on the Black Lives Matter movement. Eight months later the former Yorkshire cricketer Azeem Rafiq gave testimony to the culture, media and sport select committee about abuse he said he had endured in the sport which threw the issue further into the spotlight and led to the Icec receiving so much evidence it delayed their report by several months.
