Cameron Bancroft has confirmed for the first time that David Warner encouraged him to try to tamper with the ball in Cape Town with the tacit approval of the captain Steven Smith, leading to a scandal that saw all three banned from the game while Cricket Australia dealt with a host of cultural repercussions.
The week after Smith revealed he had been aware of conversation between Warner and Bancroft about possible ball-tampering and stated "I don't want to know about it", thus allowing the events that followed to take place, Bancroft said that he had accepted the then vice-captain's advice because he "just wanted to fit in and feel valued" in the team.
Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.
