Cricket Scotland has been rocked by the findings of a new report. The report which was commissioned by the board finds that sexism was very much evident and alive. It also goes on to claim that the team’s leadership in 2022 was “institutionally racist”. Cricket Scotland prejudiced towards women? Findings of the report: 1.

Root causes leading to sexism were identified, including the make-up of committees, embedded male behaviours and under representation of female game officials.
