Former Essex pacer Jahid Khan has accused racist abuse while playing for the English county side a few years back, according to a report.
Jahid, 35, is the third player from Essex to accuse it of racism that has rocked English cricket in the wake of the Yorkshire-Azeem Rafiq episode.
The cricketer follows Zoheb Sharif and Maurice Chambers who have also accused the club of racial discrimination.
Jahid, who represented Essex in seven first-class matches between 2005 and 2009, described the club as a white man's world where brown people were outsiders after allegedly being asked by a teammate if he was going to bomb the club.
