Statement from Tymal Mills

Sussex’s Tymal Mills has released the following statement via the club:

“In relation to the social media post from 2012 from Jack Brooks, I feel compelled to comment given how prominent issues such as this are currently.

“Jack and I have spoken about it and I know how much he regrets having used the language he did.

“I believe it is right that both as a sport and as a society, we must go through a thorough process of reflection and introspection regarding the language we use towards each other and how we treat each other.

“Jack has apologised to me profusely and sincerely which I have accepted and I still consider him to be a good friend.

“I consider this matter to be closed and do not wish to comment on it any further.”
