Warner played his last ODI in the ODI World Cup final against India in November, while he played his last Test match against Pakistan in January and it seemed for a long time that this T20 World Cup would be his last tournament. He was also expected to play in the Champions Trophy next year but this will not be possible.
In the last international match against India, he scored six runs in six balls, but he was caught by Suryakumar Yadav in the slip on the outgoing ball of Arshdeep Singh. He then hit his bat angrily and walked off the field with his head down, not knowing that it was his last match. For this reason he could not get any respect from the audience and fellow players.
After the match, he was seen chatting with Virat Kohli at the Darren Sammy Cricket Stadium and Josh Hazlewood said that paying his final respects to his teammates depended on Afghanistan’s match against Bangladesh.
Hazlewood said, “Nothing has been said yet. It may be after the press conference or before the match in the evening, but I think we should wait until the next match is over, then we will see. What a career he has had. We will miss him in the group, he has been brilliant for us in all three formats.”
On Warner’s departure, Hazlewood said, “We saw it in Test cricket, we saw it in ODI cricket and now in T20 cricket. We had got used to playing without him a bit in New Zealand. It is always difficult to lose a player who is very good for us.” Been together for a long time, but we have to move forward.”
Before Australia’s exit, his opening partner Travis Head said, “It’s sad to see Warner’s career end like this. We would be really sad if his career ends like this, where his next match will be He has done very well for Australian cricket at the top of the order.
Head said, “He will be one of our best players across all three formats. We will miss him at the top of the order, but we don’t want this to be the end. We will wait and see how to send him off.”
Hazlewood has understood that Cameron Green is the only under-28 player in Australia’s team who can lead the way in the 2026 T20 World Cup. But he said, “T20 World Cups come very often every two years.”
“There may be some changes, but many players are still playing franchise cricket even if they are not playing for Australia, so they can be selected. Our own 15 players have strength and some players are also on the bench. “You might think we are headed for slow change, but nothing is going to happen fast.”
