Michael Vaughan and his legal team have slammed the ECB, describing their racism investigation case as “wholly inadequate” and biased.
Vaughan is charged with bringing the game into disrepute by saying to Azeem Rafiq, Adil Rashid, Rana Naved-ul-Hasan and Ajmal Shahzad “there’s too many of you lot, we need to have a word about that” prior to a Twenty20 match against Nottinghamshire in June 2009.
Vaughan categorically denies the allegation, and the closing submissions from Christopher Stoner KC on behalf of the former England captain took a swipe at the way the ECB had handled the entire case, branding it unfair and claiming it denied their client “due process.”
