most people in australia do not believe that the coach darren lehmann or the fast bowling coach darrenybody thinks this is something that is broader than steve smith, david warner and a couple of other players. when you say that, is this something that has been going on for longer in australian cricket orjust this series where australia was finding it pretty tough going against south africa? -- david saker. i get the inkling, this is only my opinion, that this is a very recent thing, the volatility of the series, the verbal slanging, the fact australia is disappointed that the ban of the december by the was overturned, they see him as the main threat, it boiled up, it was too much, but there is no way that you can excuse there is no way that you can excuse the straight year team, and in particular, steve smith. not many members of the spreading public feel steve smith should be cut some slack. —— kagiso rabada. steve smith should be cut some slack. —— kagiso rabadalj steve smith should be cut some slack. -- kagiso rabada. i hope that your head won't heals rapidly! glenn mitchell, thank

meanwhile, head coach darren lehmann was found to be unaware of the cheating scheme and, despite concernsnouncement here at this johannesburg hotel this evening came amid intense scrutiny, notjust from the cricketing public, but also sponsors and even the australian government. a sense of outrage ensuring that this is now a test case for the integrity of the sport. i think it's desperately sad. obviously, individuals occasionally cross over the boundaries between fair play and unfair play, but to have organised, orchestrated cheating in this way, with the australian captain, captain of a side that set itself out to claim the moral high ground, now they're caught doing this, and i really don't think almost any punishment is too big. shame and anger now follow this team. australia hoping that swift action and appropriate punishments allow them to move on from this cricketing crisis. dan roan, bbc news, johannesburg. in a year's time, on 29 march 2019, the united kingdom will formally leave the european union and enter a transition period, but there's still a mountain of negotiations ahead i
