SPORT: WI Cricketers Show Support For The BLM Movement

West Indies will wear a Black Lives Matter emblem on the collars of their shirts during July's Test series against England. Captain Jason Holder hinted in his first press conference, of the tour that West Indies would look to support the movement in some way, and said in a statement on Sunday: "We believe we have a duty to show solidarity, and also to help raise awareness." The logo used will be that worn on the shirts of all 20 Premier League football clubs, since the sport's restart earlier this month, designed by Alisha Hosannah, whose partner Troy Deeney is Watford's captain. Deeney was contacted by CWI for approval, and the ICC gave permission for the emblem to be worn on the teams' collars. "This is a pivotal moment in history for sports, for the game of cricket and for the West Indies cricket team," Holder said. "We have come to England to retain the Wisden Trophy but we are very conscious of happenings around the world, and the fight for justice and equality.
