David Warner will be able to make his case to be reconsidered for captaincy after Cricket Australia ratified aBanned for life from leadership after the 2018 Newlands ball-tampering scandal, Warner will now be able to request a review of that sanction before a panel of three code of conduct commissioners, a process that could happen as soon as a hearing can be arranged.
Warner, Cameron Bancroft and Steve Smith were all handed playing bans following the scandal, and Smith was suspended from captaincy roles for two years. Warner’s lifetime suspension, insisted upon by the Cricket Australia board of the day, created more complications for the governing body.
