I listened to the first hour or so and it made incredible listening. Rafiq certainly put his points across emotionally and powerfully and stressed that the probable reason certain cricketers (Root and Vaughan were mentioned, and many more too) didn't recall the racial comments was that they were so accustomed to the terms that it meant nothing to them. Yorkshire CCC certainly were left without a leg to stand on after briefing against Rafiq and deliberately ignoring the findings and consequences of their own report.

I'm still undecided as to why he chose to go back for a second spell, unless it was for money to better look after his family.
