Rishi Sunak, Britain's first Indian-origin Prime Minister, has spoken of the "sting" of racism that he experienced growing up in the UK during a special appearance at the England versus Australia Ashes Test match at Lord's Cricket Ground in London.
The 43-year-old cricket lover was interviewed on the BBC’s iconic 'Test Match Special' (TMS) radio show on the fourth day of the second Ashes Test on Saturday when he was asked about a recent independent report which found "widespread and deep-rooted” racism, sexism, elitism and class-based bias at all levels of cricket and prompted an unreserved apology by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB).
