David Warner’s consideration in the Australia group for the Test series against Pakistan has turned into a subject of serious discussion, with ideas being made that the initial hitter didn’t merit being remembered for the group. Previous Australia pacer Mitchell Johnson, in his segment, sent off a sharp assault at Warner and the Australian selectors after he was added to the Test list in spite of unfortunate structure. Johnson’s analysis of Warner hasn’t been invited by a lot of people, with Australia player Usman Khawaja calling the remarks by the previous Aussie star “cruel”.
“Why a player at the focal point of quite possibly of the greatest embarrassment in Australian cricket history warrants a legend’s farewell?”, Johnson wrote in his segment for the West Australian.
Khawaja, nonetheless, said that both David Warner and Steve Smith – – two of the three players at the focal point of the ball-altering embarrassment – – are legends in his eyes.
“Davey Warner and Steve Smith are legends to me,” Khawaja told journalists. “They missed an extended period of cricket through dim times in Australian cricket however they have put in their time.
“Nobody is great. Mitchell Johnson is somewhat flawed. I’m flawed. Steve Smith is flawed. David Warner is flawed.
“How they have helped the game and to become the game far offsets anything more they have done.
“So for [Johnson] to suggest that Dave Warner or any other person associated with [the] Sandpaper [incident] isn’t a legend, I unequivocally can’t help contradicting on the grounds that I accept they have put in their time.”
“I don’t know you can contend with that. [The criticism] is brutal,” Khawaja said.
It’s anything but a mysterious that Warner’s structure with the bat in Test cricket hasn’t been awesome over the last 2-3 years. Despite the fact that Australia mentor Andrew McDonald proposed that Marnus Labuschagne was a choice to supplant Warner at the top.
“Have you asked Marnus this? I figure he would give you a truly clear, ‘damnation no’,” Khawaja said on McDonald’s idea. “Marnus has got opening-itis. I’m almost certain Davey Warner harmed his arm and sent Alex Carey out to open. I feel that is a remote chance.”
