Pathan said, there is racism in domestic cricket: Irfan said that he does not know when racism happened with Darren Sammy, but he can say that it happens in domestic cricket. He said that in 2014 he was part of the camp with Sammy in the Sunrisers Hyderabad team. He said that it may happen in reality, but he is not aware of it. It is also likely that it has not been discussed on a large scale. He said that in domestic cricket, often South Indian cricketers have to face racial remarks while playing in the North and Western regions.
