This is David Warner’s world, and we are just living in it. What a fairy tale his last test series is turning out to be. He has completed his 26th career in a fine fashion against Pakistan in the West test. A few months back, David Warner announced that he will retire from test cricket after the home test summer.
Speculations about his form arose; if he wasn’t performing well, there was a lot of speculation that he might retire. However, at this moment, it seems like all the doubts were just nonsense.

David Warner showcased his best against Pakistan, starting his innings positively. His audacious six over fine leg was a highlight. It’s a positive start for Australia as the departing player begins the test series with a century.
Warner, a faithful servant for Cricket Australia with 109 matches since his debut in 2011, has had a journey filled with ups and downs. Despite controversies, he has remained one of the best openers in test cricket. His 26th test century, achieved after an entire summer, reflects his enduring quality.
Against Pakistan, Warner’s records speak for themselves, averaging 90 with a high score of 335 and 6 centuries. A phenomenal performance!
Australia on High Against Pakistan, David Warner and Steve Smith on Crease
In the current Australia-Pakistan match, Warner’s brilliant innings provided a dominating start. The first session belonged entirely to Australia, scoring at a run-rate above 4. Now, Warner and Steve Smith are at the crease, displaying solidity and commitment to scoring big runs for Australia.
David Warner wants to leave a lasting legacy behind him, and there’s no better moment than a home series against Pakistan. He enjoys playing against Pakistan and has spoken about feeling no pressure in his last Test series, even with his experience.
He says he won’t feel that pressure, especially considering the way he started today. He attacked the bowlers with his trademark aggression, eager to score runs for Australia. His hunger was evident, and he now has 26 career Test centuries – a remarkable feat considering most players don’t even reach 10.
He may not be known for his technical expertise, but as an unorthodox opener, he’s proven everyone wrong. He’s already scored 6 centuries under his belt, and who knows? With more Test matches left, he could add two more to that tally today. He’s definitely on track to finish his Test career on a high note.
