The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) said on Tuesday a range of measures aimed at strengthening its inclusion and diversity strategy would deal with some "uncomfortable truths".
A recent study by Leeds Beckett University found that there were only nine Black players competing in English county cricket last season, down from 33 in 1995 - a statistic former England skipper Michael Atherton said was "not good enough".
The ECB said a range of new measures would focus on leadership, education and opportunity to address the under-representation of the BAME community in English cricket.
It has proposed a game-wide anti-discrimination charter and code for players, coaches, fans, media and clubs as well as increased opportunities for BAME individuals to play and coach.
Only two of the 118 managers or coaches employed by counties last season were Black, according to a Daily Telegraph report.
"Alongside most of society, we have had to confront some uncomfortable truths in the wake of the Black Lives Matter movement," Tom Harrison, ECB Chief Executive Officer, said.
