MELBOURNE (Reuters) - Australia's test cricketers were shocked to learn of Tim Paine's resignation from the captaincy over a 'sexting' scandal but are fully behind him to continue as wicketkeeper for the Ashes, batsman Marcus Harris said.
Opener Harris said players only became aware of Paine's decision half an hour before he went public last Friday to reveal he had been investigated over lewd text messages sent to a female Cricket Tasmania staffer four years ago.
