Earlier, Warner expressed his commitment to the sport, emphasizing his passion for contributing to the team’s success. The seasoned opener discussed the challenges he has faced, particularly in recent times, highlighting the resilience required to overcome setbacks and continue performing at the highest level.

“For me, leading into the World Test championship it was about how many Tests I was going to play. Look back, if people read my comments, ideal scenario would be to finish in Australia. But you’ve still got to score runs, you’ve still got to perform. Lord’s was going to be my last Test if I wasn’t scoring runs in England,” said Warner on Fox Cricket.

I want to keep the media focused about the team and the Ashes and the World Test Championship. I was sick of it all being about me. It’s not about me at all, it’s about the team. If we’re winning and we’re succeeding and I’m doing my job, so be it,” he added.
