South Africa thrash Australia to pile on pain for tourists after scandal


Steve Smith must go after scandal that has torched Australia’s reputation Read moreTo begin, the golden boy of Australian cricket, Steve Smith, was stood down from the captaincy. The demotion was confirmed moments before play when both he and the vice-captain David Warner were stripped of their posts. In keeping with the adage that the only job more important than the Australian Test captaincy is the prime ministership (or vice-versa), Malcolm Turnbull called the CA chairman, David Peever, to demand better. It was, as Paine said, a “horrible 24 hours” for Australian cricket. We are still the Australian cricket team and we are expected to put up a better effort than what we did.
