Former England batter Gary Ballance should be fined £8,000 and banned for eight weeks for using racist language at Yorkshire, according to the England and Wales Cricket Board.at the club by the Cricket Discipline Commission panel in March.
The ECB said Ballance's fine should be reduced from £12,500 and the suspension reduced from 10 weeks because he admitted guilt andIt said Ballance, 33, should also go on an education course and be reprimanded. In 2020, he took a break from cricket to manage "some heightened feelings of anxiety and stress" and missed much of the 2022 season to focus on his mental health after admitting he was responsible for some of the allegations made by Rafiq.
The panel found that 2005 Ashes winner Hoggard, who denied racist intent to his language, had used two racist slurs but found an allegation he used the term "you lot" about Asian players not proved. Blain was found to have used a racist phrase to describe Asian individuals during his time as a Yorkshire coach, which he denied.
