David Warner alleges Cricket Australia never interviewed Starc, Lyon and Hazlewood in sandpapergate investigation: Stinks of a cover-up

David Warner has reignited the ball-tampering controversy through a social media post, asserting that Cricket Australia failed to speak with Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood, and Nathan Lyon during their initial inquiry. The former batter argued that omitting these key bowlers from questioning proves the entire probe was a superficial effort to shield certain individuals from accountability.

This development follows recent assertions from Usman Khawaja regarding team awareness of the incident, which current skipper Pat Cummins strongly rejected during a lengthy media briefing. Warner subsequently accused the present captain of abandoning his long-time friend, adding further tension to the fallout originating from the 2018 series.
