Australian cricketer Usman Khawaja has disputed the findings of a probe into the 2018 ball-tampering scandal, known as Sandpapergate. The row involved Australia scuffing the ball with sandpaper during a March 2018 Test in Cape Town. The scandal caused a major integrity crisis for Cricket Australia, the country's cricket board.
