Australian Cricket Board - Cricket Australia took a big decision regarding Warner, he may get a big responsibility

Australian Cricket Board: Australian cricket team's star opening batsman David Warner, who retired from international cricket this year, has been given a big relief by Cricket Australia (CA). After getting caught in the sandpaper scandal in the Cape Town Test match of South Africa in 2018, Warner was not only banned from playing cricket, but he was also banned for life from captaining any team in Australia. Now Cricket Australia has lifted this captaincy ban in its latest decision, giving Warner a chance for a new start.

Warner can captain Sydney Thunder

After the ban imposed by Cricket Australia was lifted, David Warner can now take over the captaincy of Sydney Thunder in the upcoming season of the Big Bash League (BBL). Warner is already a part of this team, and now he will have the opportunity to take over the responsibility of captaincy. The three-member panel of Cricket Australia's Conduct Commission took this decision unanimously keeping in mind the improvement in Warner's conduct. Cricket Australia said in its statement that after the changes in the "Code of Conduct 2022", Warner has met the required criteria, and his ban is being lifted.

Warner had long demanded the ban to be lifted

During the sandpaper scandal, both Warner and his teammate Steve Smith were banned by Cricket Australia for one year each. However, Warner was banned for life not only from playing but also from captaining any team in Australia. When Warner returned to international cricket after completing a one-year ban, he had been constantly demanding the lifting of this lifetime ban on captaincy. After a long period of six years, Cricket Australia finally accepted Warner's demand.

Warner's conduct changed

In its decision, the panel took into account Warner's acceptance of the mistakes made by him and the positive changes in his behavior after that. Cricket Australia's Conduct Commission also believed that Warner has proved through his conduct that he is a responsible player and is capable of taking on the responsibility of captaincy.

New chapter in cricket career

With this decision, a new chapter in David Warner's career is about to begin. While on the one hand he has said goodbye to international cricket, he will now have an opportunity to prove himself once again by captaining Sydney Thunder in the Big Bash League. It will be interesting to see how Warner now leads the team with his experience and ability.

This decision of Cricket Australia has not only raised new hopes in Warner's career, but it is also a big news for his fans who wanted to see Warner as a captain again.
