HIGH PRICE OF YORKSHIRE’S HASTY CULL

ANDREW GALE, former captain and coach of Yorkshire, is the latest to receive a substantial pay-off, following the fallout from the Azeem Rafiq racism scandal. Yorkshire’s policy of sack first, ask questions later, is proving very expensive with £1.9million now set aside for the costs of compensation. Gale has always denied racism towards Rafiq and accused the ECB of conducting a

witch-hunt. As the bill gets steeper, he looks increasingly justified in his anger.
