An opportunity to speak is not the same thing as being interviewed. That distinction sits at the centre of Today's discussion of David Warner's renewed criticism of the 2018 Australian ball-tampering investigation.

In the segment posted by 9 News Australia today, reporter Jack Hahn outlines Warner's allegation that bowlers were never interviewed. Warner calls the inquiry a "shoddy investigation" and says in his statement: "It looks like they had decided who they wanted to blame from the very beginning..."

Cricket Australia's response, displayed in the report, says: "All players were given the opportunity to speak at the time of the initial investigation..."

The studio discussion then works through what those competing statements establish. Sports reporter Christy Doran distinguishes the initial inquiry from the more extensive investigation, arguing that the two have become blurred in the debate. Later, he notes that Cricket Australia's wording stops short of a detailed, direct denial about the specific interviews Warner questions.

Joining from Lisbon, The Final Word Cricket Podcast's Geoff Lemon places Warner's intervention alongside claims in Usman Khawaja's book and describes grievances that have been building for years. The segment presents Warner's cover-up allegation, not a finding that one occurred.

The upload has drawn roughly 40,000 views in its first six hours. Its closing discussion turns to how Warner should explain his account: a studio co-host argues for taking questions from the assembled media rather than issuing statements on social media.
