Suspended from all international and Australian domestic cricket until early next year, Former Vice Captain David Warner tearfully conceded last month that he’s resigned to the fact that he may never play for Australia again.
However, Cricket Australia Chief James Sutherland insists all three players involved in the controversy (captain Steve Smith and Cameron Bancroft copped 12 and nine-month bans respectively) have opportunities to atone.
“Absolutely, I think everyone deserves their chance and their own personal redemption story is very much in their own hands now,” he told.
“Each of them have to go about that during the time they’re out of the game and prove that their worthy (and) prove to the Australian selectors that they should want them back.
He added: “I feel for all three players. I feel forgiveness for all of them. I feel sympathy for them and I want to see them all come back and play their best cricket. I believe they all can.”
