After retiring from Test cricket after scoring 57 to lead Australia to an eight-wicket win over Pakistan at the Sydney Cricket Ground, veteran opener David Warner in his farewell speech said he hoped young kids out there would follow in his footsteps. Can.
Although Warner fell after being out LBW to off-spinner Sajid Khan when Australia were 11 runs behind the target, the left-handed batsman did enough to ensure a comfortable victory, earning a standing ovation from the crowd and Ended his Test career. Australia secured a 3–0 series win over Pakistan.
“It’s pretty much a dream come true. Win 3-0 and conclude a wonderful 18 months to two years for the Australian cricket team. After winning the World Test Championship, drawing the Ashes series and then the World Cup and then to come here and finish 3-0 is an outstanding achievement and I am proud to be here with a group of great cricketers.
“These people work behind their backs. The engine room, three big fast bowlers and Mitchell Marsh. He works tirelessly in the nets and gym and the credit for being on the park goes to him, the physios, the staff who are behind it. Look at them, they are amazing. And I will never have to face him in the nets again. Which I don’t do anyway. That helps,” Warner told the host broadcasters after the match ended.
