'It's Become A Bit Tokenistic': Gilchrist Comes In Support Of De Kock's Refusal To Take A Knee

By IANS News October 27, 2021 • 12:09 PM View: 1232

Former Australian wicketkeeper-batter Adam Gilchrist has said that South African cricketer Quinton de Kock's decision to opt out of the game against West Indies in the T20 World Cup on Tuesday was not on account of him not supporting "people of colour within that country".

Minutes before the toss in the 'Super 12' game, which the Proteas won by eight wickets, de Kock made himself unavailable for selection. The news came after Cricket South Africa (CSA) released a statement saying that all players should take the knee before their remaining T20 World Cup matches in support of the 'Black Lives Matter' movement.
