Tim Paine has been under the scanner since he was accused of sending ‘highly’ explicit texts to a woman. The former Test skipper has now responded that he too received inappropriate messages from the same woman who had accused him. Paine had sent pictures of his genitals to Renee Ferguson, a former Cricket Tasmania employee, in 2017 during the Ashes Test against England in Brisbane.
In a recent statement, Cricket Tasmania had revealed that Ferguson had not submitted the entire conversation between the two and claimed that the Aussie player was accused of sending messages like ‘Will you want to taste my d?? Fk me; I’m seriously h***.’
This was in contrast to what she had earlier submitted and claimed to get offended by the nature of the texts from Tim and requested compensation from Cricket Tasmania.
Cricket Tasmania mentioned that the woman had sent Paine a highly ‘explicit’ message during their conversation. Paine had revealed that he got more than 20 to 30 messages, and the woman had stayed away from revealing the full details while filing the incomplete and inaccurate documents in court.
“The texts to Mr. Paine contained highly sexualized and explicit sexual content,” Cricket Tasmania admitted as per daily mail. The two parties involved tried to settle the matter outside the court, but that did not work out. The next date of hearing is on May 10.
