Former Australia vice-captain David Warner will not appeal the 12-month ban he received for his involvement in the ball-tampering scandal. 

Reports revealed on Wednesday, that former Australia captain Steven Smith has also refrained from contesting his 12-year ban while opening batsman, Cameron Bancroft, also avoided appealing his nine-month ban.

Warner is, however, allowed to play Premier Cricket as well in overseas domestic competitions if Cricket Australia approves.

Despite rumours suggesting that Warner will give his side of the ball-tampering scandal in a lucrative TV interview, the 31-year-old apologised and accepted the consequences for his actions on Twitter.
