The former Australia vice-captain David Warner was regarded as the ringleader as the tourists were caught attempting to manipulate the condition of the ball in last month's third Test against South Africa at Cape Town.
He posted on Twitter on Thursday: "I have today let Cricket Australia know that I fully accept the sanctions imposed on me. "I am truly sorry for my actions and will now do everything I can to be a better person, teammate and role model."
Skipper Steve Smith was also banned for a year, with opening batsman Cameron Bancroft suspended for nine months following a CA investigation which revealed he had used sandpaper to try to alter the state of the ball.
