Totally agree, it has to be a wide ranging process, simply punishing someone for a mistake made years ago will do no good.

A second player is now under investigation and you wonder if this is now a free for all.
Agreed 👍

Looks like it’s now several players being looked into...

The ECB in their knee jerk reaction to punish someone will now have by the reports several cases to deal with.

Now Robinson has been suspended anyone else you would think must also be suspended.

Morgan, Anderson and Buttler.

Dear world,

Please stop being so precious, and so quick to be outraged by anything and everything.

Kind regards,

If the ECB decide to ban anyone who has ever said something non-pc, there’s a decent chance you will get called up to play in the ashes.

Williamson in doubt for the next test due to an ongoing elbow issue. Not good considering his scores in the last match and the WTC final coming up.

But, then there is a great chance for them to find out what I've been saying in the past! 🤔

Other than the sponsor logo, which I agree is a bit garish, I quite like them. The new training kit is nice too.

noticed that too, maybe hadnt had his negative pcr test yet so hadnt joined the bubble? would be very embarrassing for the ECB if they called him up and he was the one that Wisden had caught - not that i agree with what wisden are doing, trying to destroy people for a story

Job of a journalist to report these things. Bigotry and bias is clearly an issue in cricket and it does no favours to anyone to pretend it isn't.

The ECB has failed to do it's due diligence and IMO they've handled these tweets coming out really poorly. Are they now going to suspend Anderson, Morgan, Buttler, etc pending investigation as they've done with Robinson? Because otherwise Robinson has been unfairly singled out and scapegoated.
