Over 3 years after the infamous ball-tampering scandal that rocked the world of cricket, Aussie cricketer Cameron Bancroft has made a startling revelation. In an interview to the Guardian, Bancroft who is currently playing County Cricket in England said that it was "self-explanatory" that bowlers in the Test team had to be aware the ball was being tampered with. Bancroft along with then captain Steve Smith & David Warner were found guilty of tampering with the ball and were banned from the sport for a long duration by Cricket Australia. The board though was in damage control and prevented the fire from spreading as it concluded that only Bancroft, Warner & Smith knew about the tampering. The new admission from Bancroft is now likely to open a can of worms.
