Warner’s Competitive & Dynamic Service Will Be Missed, Says Hayden
CEAT Cricket Rating Awards: Matthew Hayden, the former Australia opener, believes the current Test team will miss the extremely competitive and wonderfully dynamic nature of David Warner in this year’s Border-Gavaskar Trophy series.
Warner played 112 Tests for Australia and amassed 8786 runs at an average of 44.6, with this year seeing his international career come to an end. Since then, Usman Khawaja and Steve Smith have been Australia’s opening pair in Tests, but that hasn’t brought them much success.
“Yes, it is. For the first time, it (Australia Test opening pair) doesn't feel as secure. David Warner gave great service to Australian cricket. He gave a service that was extremely competitive, and wonderfully dynamic. He really took that legacy that I'd created through the 2000s to a new level, strike rates in excess of 80, and gave great momentum to the top order, which otherwise is quite a conservative, very good, but very conservative batting line-up.”
