South Africa’s wicketkeeper-batsman Quinton de Kock says he is “more than happy” to take a knee and has insisted that he is “not a racist” two days after missing South Africa’s T20 World Cup game against the West Indies for refusing to make the gesture.
De Kock’s decision to withdraw from the game came after Cricket South Africa (CSA) obligated all their players to take a knee before the rest of their T20 World Cup matches after some players took varying stances before their opening game against Australia.
South Africa’s next game is against Sri Lanka on 30 October and De Kock declares that he is now willing to take a knee stating that he “would love nothing more than to play cricket for my country again”.
