Cape Town Sandpapergate: Former Australia fast-bowler Mitchell Johnson said he still stands by his views on David Warner despite the opener making 164 in the first innings of the ongoing Perth Test against Pakistan, though he added not being surprised over the veteran player’s performance.
Johnson raised eyebrows when he said Warner didn't deserve a farewell Test series due to his poor form in last three years and of being previously banned for 12 months due to being involved in the 2018 Cape Town Sandpapergate scandal.
On reaching his century at Perth, Warner made a ‘shush’ gesture towards the Perth Stadium media centre, where Johnson was seated for his radio commentary duties. After the day’s play, Warner had said to reporters that his celebration was for the critics.
