75-year-old understood to be in exclusive talks with countyClive Efford urges ECB to prevent former chair’s comeback
Colin Graves returning to Yorkshire would be a “disaster” if the cricket authorities allowed it to happen, a member of the culture, media and sport select committee has said. The 75-year-old is understood to be in exclusive dialogue with the club over a return, after talks with former Newcastle owner Mike Ashley over a potential investment stalled.
Graves served as Yorkshire’s chair between 2012 and 2015, part of a 17-year period between 2004 and 2021 where the club have since admitted an England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) charge of failing to address the systemic use of racist or discriminatory language.
