'Keep people aware that game is important': England opener Rory on anti-racism initiatives by ECB

While addressing a virtual press conference in Tamil Nadu's Chennai ahead of the first test match between England and India which will take place from February 05 to February 09 at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai, the batsman of England Cricket Team, Rory Burns spoke on issue of racism.

Burns said, "I don't think it will be exhaustion in the bubble from my space." "All we can do is to keep people aware that the game is important.

And it is great to see that the PCA and the ECB are having initiatives to actually educate players, so we can really get on board with it.

Anything that increases the diversity and inclusivity is only a positive thing to me," he added.
