“The idea within Cricket Australia is that David is doing particularly well on the field and contributing well off the field,” said chairman Lachlan Henderson. “The first step in terms of restrictions on David’s leadership is to review the code and see if those restrictions can be reviewed. And that code will need to be amended appropriately.”

Henderson said the code would rewrite if deemed necessary

Henderson said the code will rewrite if deemed necessary before taking a call on the one-day captaincy. “Our intention is to have the code reviewed as soon as possible. It’s in no one’s interest to us to delay it,” Henderson said. “It will be time for any future leadership talks regarding David.”

There are hurdles to be clarified though. CA is apprehensive that any changes to the Code, in consultation with Ethics Commissioner Simon Longstaff, could impact matters beyond Warner.
