Australian batter David Warner played his first match of the Big Bash League (BBL) 2023-24 season on Friday (January 12) for Sydney Thunder against the Sydney Sixers.
He stole the limelight from everyone even before the commencement of the match with his grand arrival at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG). Warner landed at the iconic venue in a helicopter just before the match.
David Warner attended his brother's wedding in Hunter Valley the same day, which was about 250 km away from Sydney. He then traveled to SCG in a helicopter to reach in time for the BBL match.
Warner ended up scoring 37 (39) in a losing cause as his team, Sydney Thunder, lost the match to the Sixers by 19 runs. Sydney Sixers batted first and reached a decent total of 151/7 in 20 overs. The Thunder team got bundled out for 132 in 19.5 overs, getting eliminated from the playoffs race.
Fans took note of David Warner's grand helicopter entry for the BBL match and expressed their views by sharing memes on X (formerly Twitter). Here are some of them:
"There’s going to be a lot of things in that book that I think are going to raise some eyebrows" - David Warner about his autobiography
Speaking to Adam Gilchrist and Michael Vaughan on their Prairie Club Fire podcast, David Warner recently opened up about his plans for an autobiography. He revealed that it would raise quite a few eyebrows when it comes out. Warner said:
"There’s definitely a book in the pipeline, and I think it will be an interesting read. There’s going to be a lot of things in that book that I think are going to raise some eyebrows. I’ll have to edit a few chapters now. There’s a few more that have been added. It was 1500 pages, now it’s probably 2000."
He added:
"It’s something that’s been thought of (discussing Newlands in the book) … it does keep getting brought up, and there’s been a lot of speculation, a lot of comments about it. It’s really important that the Australian cricket team is in a great space, that we’re playing well in all three formats, and I think that’s the utmost priority.
