He was captain in 2018. It was investigated in 2018 by CA and CT. They found it was consensual between 2 adults so, while they didn't condone it, both bodies said it was between them and decided it wasn't anything that should cost him the captaincy.

Reading the text messages. Looked very consensual.

Looks like what happened is the women was charged with theft from Cricket Tasmania, where she worked, in June 2018 and then decided to put in a complaint about Paine. Looks like a form of revenge against Cricket Tasmania for having her charged.

Warnie can advise him how to handle it. He had that they of stuff hanging over him his whole career....lol.

Warnie got away with it because he was the naughty clown prince but Paine has been portrayed as Mr Squeaky Clean who can do no wrong unlike convicted villains Smith and Warner. Reckon thats the end of his career at International level and even at State Level its going to be difficult for him, imagine the crap he is going cop from the sledgers.
Josh Bootsma could probably help Tim Paine out, he knows a thing or two about sending selfies ......
