Profile
A destructive, fiery left-handed opening batsman from New South Wales, David Warner became the first Australian cricketer to get into the national team without playing a first-class game in 132 years. An outstanding fielder and a hard-hitting batsman, he was the leading run-scorer in the 2005-06 season when the Australia Under-19s toured India. He then proceeded to play the Under-19 World Cup.
Warner’s domestic career took off brilliantly as he represented the New South Wales and recorded the then highest one-day score of 165* for his team in the FR Cup, which immediately called for his selection in the Australian T20 side. He made his T20I debut in 2009 against South Africa, where he smashed a quick 89 off 43 balls and also played his first ODI the same year. After some good performances with the bat in the T20 arena, Warner finally made his first-class debut for New South Wales in the Sheffield Shield season of 2008-09.
But the best was yet to come for this talented, destructive southpaw. Despite making a quiet Test debut against New Zealand in 2011, Warner shone with his maiden international ton in only his fourth innings, smashing a blazing knock of 123*.
