David Warner’s International Career Comes to a Quiet Close

New Delhi: Veteran batter David Warner’s storied 15-year international cricket career has come to a quiet end following Australia’s elimination from the T20 World Cup. His departure marks the conclusion of a remarkable journey in cricket history.

Yuvraj Singh’s Heartfelt Note

Former India all-rounder Yuvraj Singh took to social media to pen a heartfelt note for his former IPL captain. The duo shared the field for Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL from 2016 to 2017, during which Warner led the franchise to its maiden title.

“No one likes a quiet goodbye, but that’s the game of life mate. Well done on an incredible career @davidwarner31!” Yuvraj wrote on ‘X’. “From smashing boundaries on the park to nailing Bollywood moves and dialogues, you’ve done it all in true #Warner style. A feared batsman, a lively teammate, and a true entertainer on and off the field. It was a pleasure sharing the dressing room with you buddy. Go well #legend and enjoy your well-deserved time off with the lovely family.”

A Gradual Farewell

Warner’s international career ended in stages. He played his last ODI during Australia’s triumphant 2023 campaign in India and his final Test against Pakistan in early 2024. His final appearance in the Australian jersey was against India, where he scored six runs from six balls before edging a delivery from Arshdeep Singh to slip, where Suryakumar Yadav took a well-executed low catch. Frustrated, Warner punched his bat with his right hand and walked off the pitch with his head bowed. There was no guard of honour or standing ovation to mark the moment.

Prolific Franchise Career

Away from international cricket, Warner has had a prolific franchise T20 career, especially in the IPL. In 2021, he became just the fourth batter to pass 10,000 runs in T20 cricket. Warner’s legacy in the IPL and other T20 leagues around the world remains significant, showcasing his prowess and consistency as a top-tier batsman.(cricket betting app)
