In today’s time, David Warner is one of the most explosive openers in the game of cricket. He was regarded as a T20 specialist in the initial years of his career but his temperament has helped him dominate all forms of the game in recent years. David has been equally good in all parts of the world and has also excelled in the T20 leagues across the globe.

David Warner Early Life

David Andrew Warner was born on 27th October 1986 in Paddington, Sydney, New South Wales. He belongs to a lower-middle-class household where it was hard for his parents to manage the basic necessities of life.

David’s love affair with the game began at a very early age and by the time David was 14 his coach also tried to shift him from a left-hand batsman to a right-handed one but his idea could not last long as David’s mother wanted him to carry on as a left-handed batsman. David started to work part-time during school days and despite everything that was holding him back he never actually stopped. He studied at the Randwick Boys High School and was also a part of their cricket team.

He played under 16 level cricket tournaments for Sydney coastal cricket club and during those days he also made it into the U19 Australian team that was on its way to Sri Lanka. David came into the LimeLight while playing for New South Wales. One of his breakthrough moment came while he was playing for NSW when he scored 197 runs off 141 balls the highest score in Australia one-day domestic Cricket.

In 2018 he scored 165 not out for New South Wales blues against Tasmania. Just after his heroics with New South Wales, he came into the Australian T20 side. His debut was one of a kind because of the fact that he was the only batsman in 132 years to be selected for the national team in any format without experiencing first-class cricket.
