Cricket Australia chairman Richard Freudenstein says his current administration would have taken the Test captaincy off Tim Paine in 2018.

Source:Cricket Australia chairman Richard Freudenstein has admitted Tim Paine should not have survived as Test captain in 2018 as a result of the sexting scandal.

But still, the focus of Australian cricket remains around the fallen wicketkeeper, who resigned on Friday as a result of lewd texts sent to a Cricket Tasmania colleague in 2017. When asked if his current administration would have endorsed Paine as captain in the circumstances, Freudenstein said he would not.

Sure mate, CA is a gunna🏏

Should have , yet the old white mans club shown again wants a 100% clean out from top to bottom

YaThinkN Bullshit .

Ca is rancid. These fckn Australian male cricketers think they're gods gift and they're treated as such. Then everyone wonders why they act like this

Too little too late from CA! What an absolute disgrace that this man has to quit his role because of something that happened between two consenting adults. Sure it’s not a good look on his family but it’s not bloody against the law! 👎

The shock Tim Paine scandal that was four years in the makingCricket fans were taken aback when news of Tim Paine's indiscretions and resignation broke, but Cricket Australia probably wasn't — and that is much of the problem, Dean Bilton writes. Its not a scandal. Cricket Tasmania said the allegations raised against Paine by a former employee of the organisation were only brought to its attention when formal charges of theft were laid against that employee in mid-2018 My question is. Who leaked the text🤔 And how 💰💰 did they get paid for it 🤨 Just seems a bit suspicious after 4 years🧐
