Coach Darren Lehmann’s position, though, is safe for now and the former international cricketer will see off his contract. Glenn Maxwell, Matt Renshaw and Joe Burns have been named as replacements for the three who’ll miss out. Tim Paine will lead the team in the only match left in the series.
CA chief Sutherland clarified that sanctions on the three players will be announced later after the investigation is complete. He went on to assure that penalties will be “significant”, signalling that considerable bans will be imposed on the players involved.
