With Australia’s T20 World Cup crash David Warner’s international career ends

The remarkable 15-year international journey of David Warner has come to an end, albeit in an understated manner. Australia’s T20 World Cup exit at the Super Eight stage, confirmed by the victory of Afghanistan over Bangladesh, marked the final chapter in Warner’s playing career for his national team. Gradually the retirement of David Warner has unfolded.



After defeating India in the World Cup in November, he announced his retirement from ODIs. In January, he played his final Test match against Pakistan. It has always been his intention to use the T20 World Cup as his farewell, and a return for the Champions Trophy the following year is still unlikely. Against India, his final international match lacked the grandeur of a farewell. Warner scored a pitiful six runs before walking off the field, not realizing that this might be his last performance wearing an Australian shirt.

There were no cheers or standing ovations because his official send-off depended on the result of the Afghanistan-Bangladesh match. Josh Hazlewood, Warner's teammate, stated during the game that the outcome of the Bangladesh match would determine how appropriate a tribute should be made.

Hazlewood highlighted Warner’s incredible career across all formats, acknowledging that his absence will be deeply felt both on and off the field.
