Warner Questions Ball Change Controversy In India A Match, Says 'quashed As Fast As Possible'
Great Barrier Reef Arena: David Warner has suggested that the recent ball change incident in the first unofficial Test between India A and Australia A was quickly “squashed” by Cricket Australia (CA), with an eye towards avoiding any friction ahead of Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
The controversy erupted on November 3 during the fourth day at the Great Barrier Reef Arena in Mackay, when umpires informed India A that the ball had been changed before the start of play, sparking frustration from the players and a heated exchange caught on the stump mic.
"The ultimate decision is with CA, isn’t it? I think they have obviously squashed it as fast as they could, given that India is coming out here this summer,” Warner told ESPNCricinfo.
