David Warner has accused Cricket Australia of a "cover-up" over its 2018 ball-tampering investigation, saying the bowlers were not interviewed. The row was reignited by Usman Khawaja's new autobiography, in which he said the whole Australia team knew about the sandpaper plan. Warner, Steve Smith and Cameron Bancroft all served lengthy bans after the Test series in South Africa in 2018. Warner said that, as far as he was aware, Josh Hazlewood, Mitchell Starc and Nathan Lyon were not interviewed, and that if so Cricket Australia could not claim the bowlers did not know. He said "That stinks of a cover-up." Pat Cummins, Australia's Test captain, said at a news conference that he was interviewed and that suggestions the whole team knew were "utter nonsense". Khawaja has said he was not interviewed despite sitting beside Bancroft in the dressing room. Cricket Australia said every player had the chance to speak at the time and could come forward since, and that it will not reopen its investigation.
