JOHANNESBURG - A remark about Black Lives Matter by South Africa's one-day and Twenty20 international cricketer of the year Lungi Ngidi in a Zoom press conference has led to mixed reactions from others in the cricketing fraternity.
"We have spoken about it and everyone is well aware of what's going on. It's a difficult one because we are not together, so it's hard to discuss. But once we get back to playing that is definitely something we have to address as a team." Ngidi followed up his remarks by retweeting an extract of former West Indian fast bowler Michael Holding's impassioned comments about racism in Sky television's build-up to the first Test between England and the West Indies on Wednesday.
