Roger Hutton stands down as crisis engulfs countyChairman ‘apologises unreservedly’ to RafiqThe
racism scandal that has engulfed Yorkshire County
Cricket Club sparked recriminations and resignations on Friday as the chairman resigned and accused the English game’s governing body of failing to act.
Roger Hutton, the chairman of Yorkshire, stepped down along with two other board members in the wake of the row over Azeem Rafiq, the former Yorkshire cricketer who in 2020 went public with allegations of racial harassment and prompted a 12-month investigation that resulted no current employees at the club facing action.
