Johannesburg [South Africa], (ANI): Cricket Australia’s decision in connection with the ball tampering scandal that has tainted the otherwise gentlemen’s sports, has prompted the response from the cricket world.
Cricket Australia (CA) on Tuesday announced that it has found skipper Steve Smith, vice-captain David Warner, and Cameron Bancroft guilty in the ball-tampering scandal, and suspended the trio for the fourth Test in Johannesburg, beginning Friday.
“Steve Smith, David Warner and Cameron Bancroft all charged after it was found they had prior knowledge of the ball tampering incident. No one else was aware,” Cricket Australia CEO James Sutherland told reporters here.
Slew of former cricketers took to social media to express their disbelief at Sutherland’s assertion that only three members of the Australian team knew what was going on.
Former English cricketer Michael Vaughan tweeted, “Only 3 people knew …….. #MyArse.”
