Warner's lifetime ban from captaincy lifted: found guilty of ball-tampering in 2018; Can captain Sydney Thunders

Australian opener David Warner's lifetime ban from captaincy has been lifted. In 2018, Warner was banned for life from captaining any team in Australia by Cricket Australia. Now Cricket Australia's Ethics Committee has reviewed the decision and decided to lift the ban on Warner.

With the ban lifted, there is speculation that he will captain the Sydney Thunders in the upcoming BBL season. David Warner was banned for ball-tampering in a Test match against South Africa in 2018. Apart from Warner, Steve Smith and Cameron Bancroft were also found guilty in the ball-tampering case, who were banned from cricket for one year.

Along with David Warner, Steve Smith and Cameron Bancroft were also found guilty of ball tampering.

Cricket Australia withdrew its decision Six years after banning David Warner, Cricket Australia has reversed its decision. A press release was issued by Cricket Australia, which said that on 25 October, a three-member panel of the Ethics Commission decided to lift the lifetime ban imposed on Warner. The panel found that Warner complied with the lifting of the ban as per the changes made to the Australian Cricket Code of Conduct in 2022.

Appealed for captaincy in 2022 It was only after a lifetime captaincy ban was imposed on him in 2018 that David Warner appealed for it to be withdrawn. Warner was so fed up with his ban in 2022 that he withdrew the appeal. Now after 6 years of waiting, Warner has finally been banned from captaincy. The ban on Warner was limited to Australia only.

Australia beat New Zealand in a T20 series under David Warner in February 2018.
