Usman Khawaja's ICC reprimand for wearing black armband in support of Gaza

Australian cricketer Usman Khawaja will contest the ICC charge for wearing a blank armband during the first Test against Pakistan, stating that it was for a personal bereavement. Khawaja had initially planned to wear shoes with messages raising awareness of the humanitarian crisis in Gaza but was not allowed to do so. He believes that the ICC has not been consistent in implementing their regulations and will ask for fairness and consistency. The ICC charge carries a potential reprimand, but even if penalized, it would not affect Khawaja's participation in the upcoming Boxing Day Test.

Irish-style wakes, which involve open caskets, community involvement, singing songs, and sharing stories, may help people cope better with bereavement and lower rates of prolonged grief disorder (PGD) compared to traditional UK funerals. A study found that about 10.9% of bereaved Irish people met the criteria for PGD, compared to 15% in the UK, suggesting cultural differences around death may contribute to the disparity. Irish wakes are seen as more communal events, providing a greater sense of community support, while UK funerals are often regarded as private affairs.
