Quinton De Kock
It seems that South African wicket keeper Quinton de Kock withdrew from their latest T20 World Cup match for "personal reasons". It has also been noticed that Mr de Kock refused to follow South African cricket's instructions to take the knee before the game. Coincidence? I think not.
Ironically, his captain, Temba Bavuma (a black man) has quoted hos support for de Kock and pledged to stand by him.
I have no issue with sportspeople taking the knee, but in my opinion, they must be free to make that choice for themselves. Nobody should be forced to support a cause. Thoughts?

A very rough England equivalent would be Alex Hales, who decided his need for recreational drugs was greater than his desire to play for England. He hasn't been back.

Sorry William, but I don't think you can agree that he is both correct and incorrect in the same sentence.
I did like his statement, that hit the nail on the head, saying that he supports the anti racist stance, but didn't appreciate being ordered to show his support. I would have a similar opinion.
