Usman Khawaja has claimed that the entire Australia team knew about the use of sandpaper to tamper with the ball in the final Test of its 2018 series with South Africa, according to BBC News. The BBC News report is a brief summary that does not describe any evidence supporting the claim.
The Guardian reported that Khawaja, a former Test opener, said "all" of the Australia touring party knew about the plot to tamper with the ball in Cape Town in 2018. Khawaja also claimed that the team used sandpaper during the second Test at Port Elizabeth, according to The Guardian.
The Guardian also reported that Khawaja said an object was used on the ball at Port Elizabeth. He said he remains comfortable with bans only for Bancroft, Warner and Smith. The summary does not say what the object was.
The two reports differ in wording. BBC News refers to the entire team, while The Guardian reports that all of the touring party knew. Neither summary says whether those phrases describe the same group. BBC News places the plot in the final Test of the series, and The Guardian places it in Cape Town. The summaries do not say whether these refer to the same match.
The Guardian article was written by Martin Pegan. The summaries describe Khawaja's claims only and do not include any response from officials.
