was quite surprised by his attitutide given he represemts a majority black country

I can totally understand the point that it should be up to the player to choose whether they kneel or not. But he's ex captain and as a senior player should take a United stance, with the rest of the squad. His withdrawal is a disgrace.

QdK didn't take the knee last match. This time round Cricket South Africa said every one of the players should take the knee. QdK refused and ruled himself out. Can't question his commitment to racism, tbh.

Whilst I think taking the knee is a total waste of kinetic movement racism wise, i'm not understanding his intolerance to it...but I respect it all the same

Is there actually any previous to suggest he’s a racist? If not then he could be taking his action for the opposite reason. Maybe he thinks it’s become a hollow gesture that’s achieving nothing?

Yeah I get that. But where’s the evidence he’s racist? It’s a dangerous path to go down to label someone as racist just because they don’t take part in symbolic gestures against it.

I mean his captain is black. Just shocking.

There are loads of players in football and cricket who feel the same way.. Ie not wanting to take the knee. But they feel inclined because if they dont they willl get called racist..

There’s no evidence to suggest he’s racist. I’d like to hear further on his decision not to take the knee, but he seemed quite tight lipped about it.

But why are sportsmen literally being forced to do this, and then marginalised if they don’t and accused of being racist?

Is he racist for not taking the knee or is he a renowned racist

Maybe he doesn't want someone dictating that he should have to do it

Zaha, a black man, doesn't take the knee in football because he thinks it's now lost its purpose. Is he racist?

Unless I've missed De Kochs explanation we should wait. Race and SA is obviously complex after their bad history - Mandelas book the long walk to freedom explains just how bad. Let's not presume let him explain

Totally agree

It’s his decision. If he doesn’t feel comfortable with it, don’t make him do it. It’s like when James mcclean refuses to wear the poppy. There is this bizarre uproar. The same applies here.

Appalling that players are bullied into joining a political demonstration on a sports field.

Interesting that players are desperate to demonstrate their concerns about equality but are happy to play the tournament in the UAE, a country which violates a number of fundamental human rights.

Every time english man says about other county human rights makes me laugh. Do you know what English has done over the years in history or even in recent history like Iraq and arms deals with all kinda country. Why always lecture other country firstfix your own back yard then talk everyone else. Always be hypocritie when it comes to other country but never look at own….

Even in England now with rape cases and kidders women are not safe. Look even at church abuse for century on century but u want ledture whole world
