West Indies Mull Adding Video Collage, Message To Anti-Racism Gesture Ahead Of South Africa Test

By IANS News June 10, 2021 • 20:28 PM View: 2071

West Indies are looking to add a bit of activism to their anti-racism stand on the field even as they look to continue with 'taking the knee' during the Test series against South Africa that begins here on Thursday.

Former captain Jason Holder, who has been vocal and has backed the 'Black Lives Matter' movement, said they are looking to add substance and meaning to the gesture instead of letting it turn into only a ritual.
