Watch: David Warner gives his Australia helmet and golves to a young fan during final walk to the dressing room
Australian veteran David Warner played his farewell Test match at the iconic Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG) against Pakistan on Saturday, January 6.
He signed off from Test cricket in style with a brisk half-century. Chasing 130 on Day 4 of the third Test against Pakistan, Warner scored 57 for 75 balls and set up the platform for an Aussie whitewash.
David Warner’s opening partner Usman Khawaja got out for a 6-ball duck in the first over. Marnus Labuschange (62) and Warner hit half-centuries to ensure Australia’s smooth sailing towards the target.
Warner came out in the 25th over when his side was on the brink of a victory. The southpaw walked off the ground to a standing ovation from the crowd at the SCG. While walking to the dressing room, he gave his Australian helmet and gloves to a young fan in the crowd.
