CRICKET’S new Anti-Discrimination Code of Conduct came into place across the professional game on Wednesday.

A statement from the governing body said: “The ECB recognises that the support of professional players will be essential in making sure this message remains visible and provides a platform to raise awareness and promote other related initiatives over the course of the season.

“Following consultation with the PCA, player representatives from the women’s and men’s game and FirstClass Counties, it has been agreed that players will be asked to support a moment of unity before the start of play at specific points throughout the season. It is intended that these moments will provide a point at which the game comes together and shows solidarity in its commitment to eradicate any form of discrimination from cricket. Individual teams and players will be able to choose how to take part and express support.”

The new Code of Conduct will also be rolled out across recreational leagues and clubs that fall under the ECB’s jurisdiction as the 2021 season gets under way.
