Obviously uzzie says it at a time thats convenient for him,
But when he comes out and says it is irrelevant.
Ball tampering happens everywhere. ICC charged them with 2 games ban and CA went out and did 12 month bans. It was damage control because they didn't want Bancroft to be the only one thrown under the bus. It was a knee jerk stupid reaction that made a mountain out of a molehill.
Ofc scars aren't healed. Warner, smith and Bancroft didn't deserve what they got because no one ever has or ever will. The true story was always about what went in behind closed dooors that made Bancroft not able to refuse something like this. Whoever's idea it was, but the cowardice they had to let a young cricket take the fall is wrong.
I agree with Ussie though that they should have all spoken up right there but who would do that if you're threatened with 12 month bans. Bancroft should have received a 2 game suspension, the team should have apologised and that's it.
These stupid bans is the reason this is still relevant 8 years later.
