David Warner, widely regarded as one of the greatest batters in cricket history, saw his international career end on a sour note as Australia knocked out of the T20 World Cup 2024.
To stay in the tournament, Australia needed Bangladesh to beat Afghanistan in Monday’s final Super 8 match. Although Bangladesh fought valiantly, the bowling heroics of Rashid Khan and Naveen-ul-Haq saw Afghanistan making it to the semifinals.
With Australia’s unexpected elimination, David Warner‘s international career has come to an official end. The veteran opener had already declared that the T20 World Cup in the USA and West Indies would be his swan song in Australian colours.
Earlier this year, the left-hander announced his retirement from international cricket after the T20 World Cup, while hinting at a possible return for next year’s Champions Trophy in Pakistan. However, it has been confirmed that he will not be playing any international cricket now.
