David Warner’s illustrious test career
Warner’s Test career is a testament to his remarkable prowess as a top-order batter. Amassing a total of 8786 runs in 205 innings, his consistency and ability to convert starts into substantial scores have been instrumental for the Australian cricket team. With an impressive tally of 26 centuries, the latter has etched his name among the elite run-scorers in the longest format of the game. Among his many notable innings, Warner’s unforgettable knock of 335 not out against Pakistan in 2019 will be etched in the annals of cricket history.
Australia marks a comfortable win at SCG
Starting from where they left off on Day 3, the Aussie bowling attack did not waste much time on Day 4 and eventually bundled up their guests on a mere score of 115. It was Warner (57) who then took charge with the willow alongside Marnus Labuschagne (62) to seal a memorable victory for the hosts.
