"I don`t like injustice so it does bother me... but it doesn`t bother him because he can go and captain in the UAE, he can go captain in India (IPL) where people appreciate his cricketing brain and what he can bring to a team," said Candice Warner

Australia batting stalwart David Warner`s wife, Candice, has come down heavily on Cricket Australia (CA) for the "injustice" meted out to her husband in the wake of the ball tampering scandal, also called `sandpaper-gate` in the Cape Town Test in 2018, saying the ban on his leadership role should be lifted as quickly as possible.
Three Australia cricketers -- the then-skipper Steve Smith, his deputy Warner and Cameron Bancroft -- were banned from playing international and domestic cricket for varying periods not exceeding a year in the aftermath of the scandal. While Smith was barred from taking up a leadership role for two years, Warner was banned from any such role for the rest of his professional life.
