Mitchell Starc has denied allegations from former teammate Usman Khawaja that Australia's bowlers were aware of the sandpaper ball-tampering incident during the 2018 Cape Town Test.
Khawaja recently suggested the bowling group knew about the plan to alter the ball's condition. Starc responded saying he hadn't paid much attention to the comments and insisted the bowlers were not involved.
The 2018 scandal led to bans for Steve Smith, David Warner, and Cameron Bancroft. Starc's denial adds to ongoing discussions about the extent of knowledge within the team.
