New Delhi, Oct 30 (Ians) The Australian cricket team and management will meet to decide on the manner to denounce racism through on-field messages.
After being criticised for not taking a knee to recognise the Black Lives Matter movement during the tour of England in September, Australia cricket coach Justin Langer on Friday said his team is conscious about the movement and will be strong on the messages during the forthcoming summer in which they play India.
Former West Indies pace bowler Michael Holding had lashed out at Aaron Finch and Eoin Morgan last month for not continuing with the knee gesture that began with the West Indies tour of England but was discontinued when Pakistan and Australia toured England. Finch had then said that specific gestures need not be done.
The Women's Big Bash League, a T20 tournament in Australia, is using the 'Barefoot Circles' to spread message against racism.
