Racial Abuse Of Siraj 'Upsetting And Disappointing', Says Justin Langer

By IANS News January 10, 2021 • 19:18 PM View: 1094

Australia coach Justin Langer has called the racial abuse incident in the ongoing third Test that saw a few Australia fans hurl abuses at Indians "sickening" and "a shame". He also acknowledged the proactive step that team captain Tim Paine took to talk and offer support to the Indian team.

When play was stalled for a while on the fourth day of the third Test between India and Australia at the Sydney Cricket Ground after Mohammed Siraj complained of racial abuse, Paine walked to the Indian team huddle and offered support.
