West Indies Test team captain Jason Holder, while talking about racism, has demanded that it be declared a crime in the game as well.
London: Racism is a worldwide problem and it still exists in its horrific form. A recent example of this was seen in the United States recently, when a white policeman in his custody held the neck of a black George Floyd with his knee for so long that he died. This was followed by the spontaneous movement across the world, in support of which many black cricketers also came. Now West Indies Test team captain Jason Holder, while talking about racism, has demanded to declare it a crime in sports too.

Crime is like doping and fixing
Jason Holder stated that racism should be declared a crime in sports as well, and the guilty person should be punished for racism in the same way as doping and match fixing. Holder said that the issue of racism in sports is fast emerging. It should be taken just like the rest of the offense in the game. Holder, speaking to a British media, said he did not think the penalty for doping and corruption should be any less than that on racism. Holder said that if there are issues in our game, then everyone should be treated equally.

Holder said that his message is clear that people should be educated more and more about this.
