Piers Morgan called Azeem Rafiq a "bottle job" who is "happy to destroy lives" as the duo became embroiled in an explosive social media spat about the Yorkshire racism hearing.
Rafiq had accused Michael Vaughan of saying "there's too many of you lot, we need to have a word about that" to him, Adil Rashid, Rana Naved-ul-Hasan and Ajmal Shahzad while at Yorkshire in 2009, and a charge was brought against the former England captain following an ECB investigation which started in October 2021.
But Vaughan was cleared of using racist language "on the balance of probabilities" on Friday following an eight-day Cricket Discipline Commission (CDC) hearing earlier this month. The CDC panel's findings concluded that the ECB's case against Vaughan could not be proven.
