David Warner’s lifetime leadership ban reversed by Cricket Australia
Meanwhile, Australia skipper Pat Cummins appeared to rule out Warner reversing his Test retirement to fill the side’s vacant opener position against India in the upcoming series.
Warner has offered to come out of retirement for the series, with Australia needing an opener after Steve Smith’s move back to the middle order.
But, speaking to The Grade Cricketer podcast, external, Cummins said: “I did speak to Dave a couple of days ago and he said. ‘What do you think?’
“I’m like, ‘Good luck with the Thunder this year.'”
Warner was given an emotional send-off in January this year after announcing the New Year’s Test against Pakistan at the Sydney Cricket Ground would be his last.
It ended his 112-match Test career, in which he scored 8,786 runs and 26 centuries.
