Apart from the specific findings against each of the three players, Cricket Australia came out with general findings against the conduct of the three players that was contrary to the spirit of the game; was unbecoming of a representative or official of Cricket Australia; is or could be harmful to the interests of cricket; and that the action of the three players and the subsequent developments did bring the game of cricket into disrepute. Since the range of sanctions available to Cricket Australia under Article 2.3.5 of its Code of Conduct are quite extensive, the Cricket Australia Board determined sanctions that would be appropriate in each player’s case, following their review of the report. In the case of Steve Smith, the Board suspended him for 12 months from all intertiol and domestic cricket. In the case of David Warner, the Board suspended him from all intertiol and domestic cricket. Since no time frame was mentioned, this is deemed to be a permanent suspension. In the case of 25-year-old Cameron Bancroft, the Board suspended him from intertiol and domestic cricket for nine months. As for leadership sanctions, Steve Smith and Cameraon Bancroft will not be considered for team leadership positions until a minimum of 12 months after the conclusion of their respective suspensions from intertiol and domestic cricket. Any consideration of future leadership would be conditiol on acceptance by fans and the public, form and authority among the playing group. As for David Warner, he would not be considered for team leadership positions in the future.
