By IANS News May 20, 2021 • 12:03 PM View: 1335

Cricket Australia (CA) Chief Executive Officer, Nick Hockley said on Wednesday that the Cameron Bancroft episode was a 'closed chapter' and 'we've moved forward', indicating that the Test batsman might be up for selection in future if he performs.

Bancroft -- who was banned along with Steve Smith and David Warner following the 2018 ball-tampering scandal during the third Test at Newlands, Cape Town in 2018 -- had indicated recently that the Australian bowlers too were aware of the unfair tactics.
