Surfing speedster Beardman gives a glimpse of Ashes future
Mahli Beardman gives England a glimpse into a possible Ashes future as he decimates their batting in Perth.
Questions regarding the 2018 Cape Town ball-tampering scandal have resurfaced following the November 10, 2026, release of Usman Khawaja’s autobiography, Sabr. In the memoir, Khawaja alleges that the use of sandpaper involved more than just a few individuals, stating that the entire Australian group—including batters, bowlers, and staff—was aware of the incident. David Warner has described Khawaja's account as 100 per cent accurate.
Australia captain Pat Cummins has dismissed claims made by Khawaja that he had knowledge of the ball tampering as “utter nonsense,” according to Japan Today. Despite the new allegations, Cricket Australia chief Todd Greenberg has ruled out a fresh inquiry into the matter, as reported by Yahoo Sports.
