After Cameron Bancroft, who was one of the 3 accused in the 'Sandpaper Gate' episode in 2018, hinted that even the bowlers knew about the ball being tampered, former Australian&nbsp;captain Michael Clarke feels that it&nbsp;isn't something to be surprised about.

He added that it isn't surprising that more than 3 people knew about it in the team.&nbsp;
