South Australia Cricket Association Bosses To Face Music Before CA Officials

The full ramifications of South Australia’s Big Bash League scandal and future of its high performance unit "will be revealed by Cricket Australia in Melbourne on Wednesday," according to Richard Earle of THE ADVERTISER. The SA Cricket Association "will call in a crack risk management team to ensure there is no repeat of alleged breaches of BBL player contract guidelines that led to the dismissal of high performance manager Jamie Cox last Friday." SACA powerbrokers Keith Bradshaw and Andrew Sinclair "face a day of reckoning as CA’s integrity unit detail whether there will be scalps in addition to former national selector Cox" (THE ADVERTISER, 5/27). In Sydney, Andrew Faulkner reported Australia’s integrity unit will ask the SACA "to explain why it sacked" Cox. But the investigators "will not make SACA justify Cox’s shock dismissal." Their visit to South Australia "is intended to collect ­information uncovered during SACA’s own probe into Big Bash player signings." The information "will form part of the integrity unit’s investigation of BBL contract ­negotiations that led to Cox’s shock sacking last week" (THE AUSTRALIAN, 5/28).
