anned opener David Warner has this week joined Steve Smith and Cameron Bancroft in accepting Cricket Australia’s sanctions for his role in the Cape Town ball-tampering scandal. David Warner, like his teammates both did this week, took to social media to confirm he’s accepted his lengthy suspension from international and domestic cricket.

Warner had tearfully apologized for his role in the fiasco on Saturday, admitting he was resigned to the fact he may never play for Australia again. The opener is however free to play Premier Cricket as well in overseas domestic competitions, subject to Cricket Australia granting him a No Objection Certificate.
