The West Indies cricket team will wear
"Black Lives Matter" logos on their shirts during next month's Test series against England in a show of solidarity with the global movement.
The logo, which has a clenched fist in place of the letter 'A' in the word"Black", was designed by Watford player Troy Deeney's partner Alisha Hosannah. "We have come to England to retain the Wisden Trophy but we are very conscious of happenings around the world and the fight for justice and equality. We believe we have a duty to show solidarity and also to help raise awareness."
Deeney said he and Hosannah were overwhelmed by the gesture."Alisha and I are immensely proud to be asked and take part in a monumental moment in world sport, this amazing decision by the West Indies cricket team to show their support for Black Lives Matter," he said.
