Former Australia captain Steven Smith and vice-captain David Warner, who are banned for a year by international cricket at Cricket Australia (CA) for ball tampering, are keen to play in the domestic circuit. One source said Smith and Warner requested the board to lift the ban on the domestic season.In the same incident, the nine-month ban came as the main protagonist of ball tampering Cameron Bancroft.
Former Australia Test captain Ian Chappell said Smith-Warner's thoughts with the same thought. He told the Australian channel Nine, "It will be difficult for the Smiths-Warner to return to international cricket again after the ban. Because they are high quality cricketers.But if they are in the game, then there will be no problem in playing the cricket again after the ban, Smith-Warner For this, at least Smith-Warner should be allowed to play in the domestic tournament.
Chapel has already told CA Chief Executive James Sutherland to give Smith-Warner the chance to play in the domestic circuit. However, CA has not said anything yet.Meanwhile, several media, including The Sydney Morning Herald, said April 11 hearing of Smith-Warner's appeal will be held on April 11. Smith-Warner's sentence may fall on the day of the hearing. It is believed that domestic cricket will continue to be punished even if the penalty period is reduced.Bancroft scored ball tampering for the third day of the third test against South Africa in the third match. Later, Smith admitted that he had spoken to himself at the press conference. CA, according to the investigation, has given Smith-Warner-Bancroft a different term punishment.
