Warner’s leadership ban lifted

David Warner’s lifetime leadership ban has been lifted by Cricket Australia.

Warner, 37, was banned from cricket for 12 months and prevented from holding leadership positions as part of his punishment for the ball-tampering scandal in 2018.

It means Warner, who retired from international cricket this year, is free to captain in Australian domestic cricket, such as for Sydney Thunder in the Big Bash.

Cricket Australia said the decision comes after a review by an independent panel.

The panel said Warner had shown “extreme remorse”, was “sincere and genuine in acknowledging responsibility” and could “contribute towards the development of young cricketers” if able to captain.
