David Warner Supports Khawaja's Claims on 2018 Sandpapergate and Questions Investigation
Usman Khawaja recently claimed in his autobiography that the entire Australian cricket team was aware of the 2018 Sandpapergate ball-tampering scandal, challenging the official narrative that only three players were involved. David Warner publicly supported Khawaja's account, describing it as "100 per cent accurate," and criticized Cricket Australia's investigation as rushed and incomplete, noting Khawaja was not interviewed despite being present. Warner emphasized the need for accountability and transparency, while some critics questioned the timing of Khawaja's revelations amid his book release.
