Resumen

Diversas formas de racismo están presentes en todo tipo de deportes. La xenofobia, en este contexto, se considera un nuevo tipo de racismo centrado en el miedo o rechazo hacia los extranjeros, a menudo entrelazado con el nacionalismo. Dado que el formato más popular del críquet son los partidos entre países, este estudio cualitativo tuvo como objetivo examinar si el nacionalismo en el deporte está propagando la xenofobia de manera intencionada o no. Participaron un total de 20 personas (6 mujeres y 14 hombres) con formación académica y profesional en críquet, incluyendo académicos de sociología, docentes, estudiantes de doctorado, árbitros a nivel nacional, jugadores profesionales, entrenadores, periodistas y funcionarios de juntas de críquet, en cuatro grupos focales, con cinco miembros en cada grupo. Los hallazgos sugieren que el nacionalismo desempeña un papel en la promoción parcial de la xenofobia y, dentro del contexto del críquet, puede fomentar actitudes xenófobas de manera intencionada o no, proponiendo además posibles políticas para mitigar dichos problemas. En general, el estudio enfatiza la urgencia de abordar la xenofobia en el críquet mediante medidas proactivas que promuevan la inclusión y combatan actitudes discriminatorias.
