Second England cricketer investigated over historical ‘offensive’ social media posts

UK

A second England cricketer is being investigated over historical “offensive” social media posts.

A spokesman for the England and Wales Cricket Board said: “It has been brought to our attention that an England player has posted historic offensive material on their social media account.

“We are looking into it and will make a further comment in due course.”

It comes just hours after bowler Ollie Robinson was suspended from all international cricket pending the outcome of a disciplinary investigation into offensive posts he sent in 2012 and 2013 as a teenager.

He will not be available for selection for the second Test against New Zealand starting at Edgbaston on Thursday.
