I’m sorry,” Steve Smith said on ball tampering incident. “I take full responsibility … There was a failure of leadership, of my leadership. I’ll do everything I can to make up for my mistake and the damage it’s caused.” Steve Smith father Peter Australia and South Africa were involved in a four-match Test series in South Africa but on the third day of the third Test, visuals of Cameron Bancroft trying to change the condition of the ball and later hiding the “sandpaper” in his trousers caused an uproar.

I’m sorry and I’m absolutely devastated,” he said.
