In this episode of Rational Voices with Sunil, I explore the shocking resignation of Anjan Luthra as Chair of Cricket Scotland — and how the wave of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) politics may have cost him everything.

✅ What really happened at Cricket Scotland & why Luthra says he “fundamentally disagrees” with the way the sport is being governed. 

✅ How four members of the board’s EDI advisory group resigned, citing “lack of progress” and “tone-deaf” statements from the governing body.

 ✅ The bigger picture: when the push for DEI becomes, in his view, a distraction from rebuilding a sport and playing for merit and performance.Let’s dig into the facts, the debates and the political dynamics behind this dramatic story of sport, ideology and culture.
