Anderson says England players accepted Robinson's apology
June 8, 2021
England players have accepted Ollie Robinson's apology for racist and sexist comments he posted on social media as a teenager, fast bowler James Anderson said on Tuesday.
Robinson has been ruled out of England's second test against New Zealand starting at Edgbaston on Thursday after historic tweets came to light last week when he made his test debut at Lord's.
The 27-year-old fast bowler had apologised "unreservedly" in the dressing room for the 2012-13 Twitter posts and Anderson, England's all-time leading wicket-taker, told reporters that was accepted.
"The language and things talked about are obviously not acceptable," he added.
