To 'Lively Teammate' David Warner, A Moving Note From His Buddy Yuvraj Singh

Australia’s T20 World Cup 2024 journey came to a heartbreaking end with Afghanistan’s eight-run win (DLS method) against Bangladesh on Tuesday.

Afghanistan have now qualified for the semis and the outcome was, particularly, a crushing blow to Australia who suffered a T20 World Cup exit. Australia’s T20 World Cup 2024 elimination also brought the curtain down on David Warner’s glorious international career, which lasted for 15 years.

Although Warner is yet to announce his official retirement, the southpaw had previously confirmed that the T20 World Cup 2024 will be his last outing in the international arena. Former India cricketer and Warner’s ex-Sunrisers Hyderabad teammate Yuvraj Singh has now reacted to the legendary batter’s retirement.

Recalling his Indian Premier League (IPL) stint with David Warner in Sunrisers Hyderabad jersey, Yuvraj Singh penned a heartfelt note for the swashbuckling opening batter.

“No one likes a quiet goodbye, but that’s the game of life mate. Well done on an incredible career David Warner! From smashing boundaries on the park to nailing Bollywood moves and dialogues, you’ve done it all in true Warner style. A feared batsman, a lively teammate and a true entertainer on and off the field. It was a pleasure sharing the dressing room with you buddy. Go well legend and enjoy your well-deserved time off with the lovely family,” India’s World Cup-winning former all-rounder posted on X (formerly Twitter).

Fans did not want to miss the opportunity to show their love and affection for David Warner. The comments section was flooded with congratulatory notes and best wishes for Warner.

In ODIs, David Warner was last seen in action against India in the ODI World Cup final in November 2023. Warner had, however, expressed his desire to return for Australia in next year’s Champions Trophy. He had appeared in his last Test match against Pakistan earlier this year in January.
