#4 David Warner – 130 v Pakistan, Sydney

David Warner has been immense in 2017

Warner has been in unbelievable form this season and continued his rich vein with another smashing century in the fourth ODI against Pakistan at the Sydney Cricket Ground. Warner scored 130 off just 119 balls adding 92 with Usman Khawaja for the opening wicket and 120 with Steve Smith for the second wicket.

Thanks to his breath-taking knock, Australia were 212 for 2 in just the 36^th over and despite losing the skipper, Steve Smith and vice-captain Warner in the same over managed to score 353. That was also thanks to Maxwell’s 44-ball 78 towards the end of the innings. Pakistan fell short by 86 runs and Warner picked up the Player of the Match. This was Warner’s first century of the ODI series and 12^th overall.
