"There is absolutely no doubt that Smith, Warner and Bancroft were treated despicably. The fact of the matter is they did the wrong thing but the punishment didn't fit the crime. I think if one or two of those players had taken legal action they would have won because of what the truth was."

CA on Monday said that they have reached out to Bancroft and asked him to come forward with fresh information. "We have maintained all the way through [that] if anyone had any new information relating to that incident we encourage them to come forward and discuss it with CA," said CA high performance head Ben Oliver.

"Our integrity team has reached out to Cam extending that invitation if he does have any new information," he said. "There was obviously a thorough investigation of that incident. There were actions taken on the back of that and since that time everyone involved in the team has worked incredibly hard to rebuild confidence and make Australia proud of the cricket team."

CA interim chief executive officer Nick Hockley refused to comment on the issue and ended his one-minute media conference abruptly.
