Sandpaper Gate Revisted after 8yrs

Seeing it's the off season, I'd love to know what everyone thinks of what is currently happening in Australian Cricket.

Current Aussie captain Pat Cummings spent more than a hour answering questions today about the latest saga. 
Was Usman right in bringing it up 8yrs later? Or is it in time to sell his book? 
Did the team know what was going on or did the coach?Why has Warner all of a sudden spoken out? 

Things are gonna get messy. If not already.

Im leaning towards Pat Cummings being the honest one.

  • Trevor Chappell are you there.

    • Trevor Chappell never cheated, he acted within the rules of the time,  the only thing he was guilty of was extremely bad sportsmanship. It was actually his captain brother Greg that instructed him to bowl underarm.

  • Cummins looked like he hadn't slept for a week, probably going over and making sure he didn't make mistakes in his scripted messages. 

    Warner on the other hand yesterday looked relaxed and answered questions confidently and naturally. 

    In my opinion Cummins knew what was going on 

    • Cummins is full of shit.

      He comes across as clean-cut, articulate and perfectly suited to the polished, all-Australian cricket captain persona. But I find it difficult to believe that the bowlers had no idea what was going on, or that it was never discussed in the change rooms beforehand; particularly since similar ball-tampering had allegedly occurred in the previous Test.

      Cummins wants us to believe that ball tampering which directly benefited the bowlers took place without their knowledge or at the very least, their suspicions - yeah right!!!!

  • There's no doubt Uzzy's trying to sell his book here. Everyone knows it out now, but without all this it would be just another book at Dymocks. If he had more to say at the investigation why didn't he say it then? He knew but he got off Scott free? Come on.

  •  

     If the original punishment was equal or similar to other players caught ball tampering,  do you think we would be talking about this at all? 

     

     Maybe they should play a series allowing illegal bats and ball tampering.  World series of enhanced cricket!!!!!

    • So Pat and his cartel didn't notice the change in the ball. OKAY.

  • Who'd want a friend like Usman?
