Stuart MacGill's international career coincided with that of Shane Warne, one of the greatest spinners in cricket history. MacGill played 44 Tests between 1998 and 2008, mostly when Warne was unavailable. The former cricketer finished his career with 208 wickets at an average of 29.02 and a strike rate of 54.02.
MacGill has been acquitted of charges related to supplying a large commercial quantity of a prohibited drug. However, a Sydney District Court jury found him guilty of the lesser charge of participating in the supply of a prohibited drug.
However, the prosecution alleged that Person A, who had a regular relationship with Person A, and Sotiropoulos agreed to exchange $330,000 for one kilogram of cocaine. The Crown claimed that MacGill played a role in facilitating the transaction by bringing them together.
