David Warner failed with the bat again as India bowler Mohammed Shami took the wicket of the star Australia opener for only 15 on Friday, Day 1 of the ongoing 2nd Test in Delhi. David Warner was seen struggling in 2022, despite many still believing that he has worked on himself and proved his worth with his impressive double century against South Africa in the Boxing Day Test the last year.
The Australian team had a perfect start, with opener David Warner & Usman Khwaja. Usman started by hitting three boundaries, and the ball moved quickly. However, Warner was seen struggling to get off the mark after surviving an LBW appeal in the first over. The 50-partnership was between Warner and Khawaja, bringing up most of the runs.
But Warner’s fortune ran out on 15 runs off 44 balls when he edged a ball from Mohammed Shami to the keeper. Warner remained in for an hour but never looked at ease against the quicks.
The Border-Gavaskar Trophy test series was the worst possible start as David Warner struggled to get going in Nagpur. He scored one & ten, respectively, in his two innings. There were rumours that he would not play in the Delhi Test, but the Australian team placed their faith in the veteran opener and gave him another chance to perform.
David Warner’s early dismissal in a match as crucial as the ongoing test has led to many speculations over the Internet. Some people believe it is the end of Warner’s legendary career, while some still have faith in his skillset as a batter.
The Internet has a lot to say, and here is how they are responding to David Warner’s flop show in the 2nd Test of BGT 2023.
