Australiia opener David Warner has commented on the rumours about his bad form. He said it is heavily exaggerated and feels quite ‘funny’ how people are talking about it.
Warner was recently dropped from his IPL team SunRisers Hyderabad where he was also sacked as the skipper when the tournament was being played in India.
“From my perspective, I actually think people talking about my form is quite funny. I laugh at the matter because at the end of the day I’ve played hardly any cricket and then in the IPL I had two games and then they basically wanted to give all the other youngsters a crack.” Cricket.com.au quoted Warner saying.
“From my perspective, that’s fine. And warm-up games are warm-up games for a reason. The other day (against South Africa) I got my benchmark back with where I should be with my feet and everything,” he added.
The 35-year-old has said that he is absolutely ‘ready’ to go ahead in the T20 World Cup and he is also in a ‘good shape’.
“I feel like I’m in a good space, I’m hitting the ball well in the nets, I couldn’t be any more ready to go. The other day (against South Africa) I felt like I was one boundary away from having a good inning,” said Warner.
Australia will now face Sri Lanka in their second match of the T20 World Cup 2021 on Thursday.
