Steve Smith Ball tampered Issued

Former Australian cricket captain Steve Smith has taken the first big step towards his return from a 12-month ban.

Steve Smith says the incident in the South Africa Test was the first time ball-tampering had happened. And if you believe that he also has some magic beans he would like to sell you.

Steve Smith says “it’s been well-documented what happened” in Cape Town. No it hasn’t. We still know nothing about the background to the plot and how it was implemented etc.
