- DCMS warns on inclusion after return of Graves
- PM announces £35m investment in grassroots cricket
MPs have called on the England & Wales Cricket Board to monitor Yorkshire closely, apparently out of concern that the county will waver from its commitment to diversity and inclusion after Colin Graves’s return as chairman.
In a report published on Friday the culture, media and sport committee asks the ECB to ensure “there is no return to the ‘business as usual’ that allowed a culture of discrimination to take root and thrive” at Yorkshire, and also to publish an update on its own attempts to make the sport more inclusive.
