'No reason' to reopen sandpaper investigation

Starc formed part of the bowling attack in the contentious 2018 Test alongside Pat Cummins, Josh Hazlewood and Nathan Lyon.

In 2021, the quartet, who remain fixtures in the Australia Test side, issued a joint statement saying they "did not know a foreign substance was taken on to the field".

Speaking at a season launch event in Sydney, Starc stated he hadn't "really paid much attention" to the media coverage of Khawaja's claims.

"Obviously, there's differing opinions of eight years ago. We were heavily grilled through the process at the time, since," said Starc.

"I guess I won't speak on behalf of the bowlers - but, where I stand, my opinion hasn't changed, my recollection hasn't changed from what we said in 2021.
