Tim Paine's treatment by Cricket Australia 'appalling': Cricket Tasmania
India Today
Cricket Tasmania condemned Cricket Australia's "appalling" treatment of Tim Paine, saying he should never have been put in a position where he felt he had to resign as Australia Test captain.
Cricket Tasmania chairman Andrew Gaggin has launched a scathing attack on Cricket Australia over their appalling treatment of Tim Paine in the sexting scandal that led to the Test captain’s resignation last week.
Paine stepped down from the role after sexually explicit text messages he sent to a female former colleague at Cricket Tasmania in 2017 were leaked to the media.

Hours after the Tarique Rahman-led BNP government was sworn in, newly appointed state minister for sports, Aminul Haque, said he wanted cases against Awami League-loyalist cricketers, Shakib Al Hasan and Mashrafe Bin Mortaza, resolved so that they could return to cricket. The former Bangladesh captains served as Awami League MPs and face multiple charges.
