Australia fast bowler Mitchell Starc has denied any prior knowledge of ‘Sandpapergate’ after former team-mate Usman Khawaja’s explosive claims that the entire dressing room knew about the ball-tampering scheme in South Africa in 2018.
Khawaja made the revelations in his new book ‘Sabr’, bringing the scandal back onto the agenda after eight years.
David Warner – who said on Monday that Khawaja’s version of events was “100 per cent accurate” – then captain Steve Smith and Cameron Bancroft were banned after the sandpaper affair, with Cricket Australia asserting only that trio were privy to the plot to alter the condition of the ball in order to try and make it swing.
