ENG vs AUS: Should have talked more about taking a knee, says Australia coach Justin Langer

By Saurabh Sharma September 15, 2020 • 23:46 PM View: 1309

Australia head coach Justin Langer has conceded his side should have given greater thought to taking a knee on their tour of England, following criticism from former West Indies pacer and commentator Michael Holding. Holding had come down heavily on England and Australia for not taking a knee in support of the 'Black Lives Matter' movement during their ongoing limited overs series.

"Now that the West Indies team has gone home, that doesn't mean that you still shouldn't be respecting the message and what it stands for," Holding had said to Sky Sports.
