Cricket Australia (CA) revealed controversial all-rounder Andrew Symonds had gone missing from the team hotel, prompting the management to throw him out of the Twenty20 World Cup squad for breach of discipline.
Soon after the all-rounder was ordered home two days before the team's opener against the West Indies following "alcohol-related incidents", CA general manger of public affairs Peter Young provided partial detail about what exactly happened. "Broadly speaking, he broke team rules. He broke team rules by going out when he wasn't suppose to, by...leaving the hotel without advising where he had gone, all of that is in breach to team rules," Young told 'Radio 3AW'. Symonds was believed to have had a couple of drinks with teammates in a breach of his rehabilitation programme prescribed by CA.
