LONDON: County Champi­onship side Glamorgan sacked head coach Grant Bradburn on Monday after allegations of inappropriate behaviour against the New Zealander.

The Welsh team referred Bradburn to the indep­endent Cricket Regu­lator following the alleg­ations and the 58-year-old was subsequently charged with misconduct.

“Glamorgan Cricket has a zero-tolerance policy towards discriminatory behaviour of any kind,” a club statement said. “Having completed our own internal investigation, it became clear that Mr Bradburn’s position was untenable, and the club is now providing the appropriate support to those affected.”

Club chair Mark Rhydderch-Roberts added: “At Glamorgan Cricket we put the well-being of our people first and are providing support for those affected.

“We’re incredibly proud of our track record in terms of making sure that everyone who is involved with the club feel they are respected, belong and are treated fairly.”
