Sussex have become the latest local sports team to join the social media boycott.
All 18 first-class counties, the eight regional women's teams, the England & Wales Cricket Board (ECB) and the Professional Cricketers' Association (PCA) will all participate in the boycott as cricket stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the football community in making clear that nobody should have to suffer abuse, racism or harassment on social media.
During the boycott, Sussex Cricket's Facebook, Instagram and Twitter accounts will not be used. Supporters looking to follow Sussex men's LV= Insurance County Championship match will be able to do so via the club's online Match Centre. Those wanting to follow Sussex women's Vitality Women's County T20 matches against Hampshire will be able to do so via the Sussex Women Play Cricket page.
They join football organisations and football clubs across the country including Albion and Whitehawk in taking a stand against racism.
