Steve Smith

The Marylebone Cricket Club today said Steve Smith's behaviour had "fallen well below the standard required" and called for a major shift in attitude and culture to preserve the game as the pre-meditated ball-tampering conspiracy, involving the under-fire Australian, escalated. Smith has been banned for one Test by the International Cricket Council for his role in a plot that saw team-mate Cameron Bancroft tamper with the ball by using yellow sticky tape during the third Test against South Africa.
