Former England woman cricketer Ebony Rainford-Brent shared a picture on Twitter of receiving a racist hate letter from an unknown person. In the letter posted by her on Thursday, Ebony was told to `leave our country`. The incident happens just days after former Yorkshire player Azeem Rafiq had appeared before a parliamentary panel to give evidence on facing racism at his former county club.
