Two former chairmen at Yorkshire County Cricket Club have been blasted by the head of the Professional Cricketers' Association (PCA) over their failure to co-operate with the probe into a culture of racism at the club.
Roger Hutton and Robin Smith – the two most recent chairmen at the club before current incumbent Lord Patel – are accused of blocking the progress of an investigation into claims of racist abuse made by Azeem Rafiq.
At a meeting of a Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport select committee, PCA non-executive chairman Julian Metherell said the body had made "a number of" attempts to contact Hutton while he was chair.
