Australian Batsman Cameron Bancroft who was banned for his actions in Cape Town Test back in 2018 recently revealed that their bowling unit knew about the thigs that were going on as well as the condition of the ball.

But according to former England Michael Vaughan, whatever happened in that Cape Town Test against South Africa has been put to rest and that it’s time to move on.

“So the bowlers potentially knew about the ball in Cape Town !!! Of course, they did but surely that episode has been put to bed a long time ago ... Let's move on,” Vaughan tweeted.

"Finger-pointing is going to go on"- David Saker on Bancroft’s revelations on ball-tampering scandal

Bancroft who is currently in UK, playing for Durham, had recently said that it was 'probably self-explanatory' whether the bowlers were aware that the ball was being tampered with.

“Yeah, look, all I wanted to do was to be responsible and accountable for my own actions and part. Yeah, obviously what I did benefits bowlers, and the awareness around that, probably, is self-explanatory,” Bancroft said to the Guardian interviewer Donald McRae as reported by ESPNcricinfo.

“I guess one thing I learnt through the journey and being responsible is that's where the buck stops (with Bancroft himself). Had I had better awareness I would have made a much better decision,” he added.

The Australian skipper at the time Steve Smith along with his deputy David Warner and batsman Cameron Bancroft had to serve a ban of 12 months for ball tampering as the latter was caught using a sandpaper on the ball on camera.
