Cricket Australia blooper: Banned Steve Smith, David Warner still on official Twitter handle

Recently, 12 months bans were handed out to former Australian captain Steve Smith and vice-captain David Warner and also a 9-month ban was handed out to the main culprit Cameron Bancroft for their involvement in the ball-tampering scandal.

As the tampering scandal was revealed last month Australia men's cricket team was touring South Africa and were trounced by the hosts in the Test series.

During the third Test at Cape Town, Cameron Bancroft was found guilty of altering the condition of the ball by using sandpaper in order to ‘reverse swing’ the ball, which in the end was their undoing.

The incident was caught in various cameras around the ground. Bancroft and Smith accepted that they were involved in the ball tampering mess and eventually punishments followed and with it came the tears- live on TV.

David Warner and Steve Smith were also ruled out by BCCI-led IPL tournament. As a result lost out on multiple-million dollar contracts playing for Hyderabad and Rajasthan, a costly mistake for the duo in the end.

Although, all three of them are serving bans but they are still there in the cover photo of Cricket Australia's official Twitter handle.
