Racism has been prevalent in many sports, cricket being no exception. Jofra Archer had to face racial slurs during a Test match in New Zealand. Even Darren Sammy has been pretty vocal on the matter. Recently, he took a sly dig at an Indian advertisement for Fair & Lovely. Your ad, Fair & Lovely clear says lovely people are the fairer people. That’s what it stands for, it hints at colourism, said Sammy.
