David Warner

Player Profile

David Warner is one of cricket’s most explosive and entertaining batsmen, known for his aggressive left-handed batting at the top of the order. He made history as the first Australian cricketer in 132 years to be selected for a national team without first-class experience. Warner’s international career has been marked by remarkable achievements, including being a key member of Australia’s 2015 ODI World Cup and 2021 T20 World Cup winning teams. Despite the controversy surrounding the 2018 ball-tampering scandal that led to a one-year ban, Warner made a successful comeback to international cricket. His ability to dominate across all three formats has established him as one of Australia’s greatest opening batsmen. Warner is particularly renowned for his IPL performances, where he has won the Orange Cap (highest run-scorer) three times and led Sunrisers Hyderabad to their maiden title in 2016.
