• ‘They weren’t the first and they probably won’t be the last’
Peter Siddle has called for Australia’s Steve Smith and David Warner to be cut some slack on their international return, saying: “They weren’t the first people to ball-tamper and they’re probably not going to be the last.”
The pair have been selected in Australia’s squad for the World Cup in England after completing year-long bans for their leading roles in the plot to tamper with the ball using sandpaper during the Cape Town Test against South Africa last March.
