Former Australia opener David Warner has questioned Cricket Australia's (CA) 2018 ball-tampering probe, alleging the investigation was flawed.

Usman Khawaja reignited the controversy with the release of his autobiography, Sabr, which he claims reveals that the ball-tampering plan extended beyond the three players sanctioned by Cricket Australia. Warner, while commenting on the first ODI between Australia and England, backed Khawaja's version of events, stating it was "100 per cent accurate."
