Cricket South Africa Directs Team To Collectively Take A Knee During T20 World Cup

By Sahil Mathur October 26, 2021 • 16:32 PM View: 1339

Quinton de Kock has opted out of South Africa's match against West Indies in the T20 World Cup following a directive from the country's cricket board that said the team should unitedly 'take a knee' against racism.

The board issued a statement after the South African squad was seen having different ways of presenting their stance for the BLM movement. While most of the players took the knee - including all colored players - some raised their fists and the rest stood in attention.
