Cricket Australia CEO: 'Absolutely no benefit' to reopen sandpaper investigation

Khawaja has claimed in his newly released autobiography that David Warner, Steve Smith and Cameron Bancroft all took the fall for the incident, but that the entire team about it.

Khawaja then went to state that he was not interviewed in the subsequent investigations, despite sitting next to Bancroft in the dressing room on the tour to South Africa.

Greenberg was not involved in cricket in 2018 but was the Australian Cricketers' Association (ACA) CEO from 2020 to 2025 before taking over as CA's CEO.

"There's absolutely no benefit in going back," Greenberg told SEN radio. "That's the clear position of the CA board. I think it's time we've got to look ahead, and the matter was dealt with under a previous leadership back in 2018.

"And you know, trying to second guess decisions from a previous time, or making an assessment through the prism of hindsight, it's not something we want to do.

"We have said we're comfortable with the outcome of the investigation based on the information we've received, that includes what we've seen from Usman and our position hasn't changed on that.I

"I don't see any compelling reason to open the investigation or revisit this again. I don't think there's anything that can be gained from that."

Warner has already posted on social media agreeing with Khawaja's version of events, and even thanked his former national teammate for having the courage to speak out.
