Ball-Tampering Scandal Fans Jeer Steve Smith At Johannesburg Airport Call Him

Former Australian cricket captain Steve Smith has faced a large crowd of media in Sydney after returning from South Africa to answer questions about the ball-tampering scandal.

Warner's statement reads: "To cricket fans in Australia and all around the world: I am now on my way back to Sydney".

"The Australian cricket team has always believed it could win in any situation against any opposition, by playing combative, skilful and fair cricket, driven by our pride in the fabled Baggy Green", he wrote on Facebook after being inundated by messages from heartbroken cricket fans.

"As Australia captain I take full responsibility, I made a serious error of judgement and I now understand the consequences".

"There's no animosity that I know of so as a group‚ we're trying to stick together to get things back on track and look after those three players in this hard time for them". Before saying that he has stained the game, Warner said that he needs to spend time with his family and trusted advisers.

"You will hear from me in a few days", he said.
