David Warner had taken the bulk of the criticism, as he is considered the mastermind behind the ball tampering incident.
The southpaw was banned from playing for Australia over the next 12 months and was also additionally sanctioned to not lead Australian cricket team across any format in the future.
Meanwhile, Steve Smith who had addressed the media has confessed his feelings. He eventually broke out in the media briefing and has apologized to the Australian public for his wrongdoings.
