New Delhi. Australia cricket team’s explosive opener David Warner has withdrawn his name from the upcoming 5-match T20 series against India. The first T20 match of the series between India and Australia will be played in Visakhapatnam on November 23. Warner, who performed brilliantly in the World Cup 2023, has decided to return home. Warner’s exit from the series is good news for the Indian team. Left-handed opener Warner is in great form right now. He scored more than 500 runs in the World Cup.
David Warner will return home to prepare for the Test series against Pakistan (AUS vs PAK) to be played in December-January. Cricket Australia gave this information on Tuesday. Australia recently defeated India to lift the World Cup trophy for a record sixth time. Warner batted brilliantly in the World Cup. He scored a total of 535 runs. The 37-year-old Warner has not missed a single match in the World Cup.
They may be broke, but… despite the loss in the World Cup final, Team India’s enthusiasm is visible in Pakistan.
From Chahal to Bhuvi… 5 players sidelined from T20 series against AUS could prove to be game changers.
Warner will not play the T20 series.
Will play the last Test series against Pakistan
Warner was part of the squad when Cricket Australia announced its 15-man squad for the T20 series against India. But now he has decided not to play the T20 series in India for the upcoming Test series against Pakistan. David Warner will be seen for the last time in Tests. He will bid farewell to Tests after the series against Pakistan. The Australian team will be led by 35-year-old wicketkeeper Matthew Wade. India has also announced its squad for the T20 series against Australia. Suryakumar Yadav will lead the Indian team while Rituraj Gaekwad will hold the role of vice-captain.
