Expressing his gratitude to the fans, Warner said – I want to thank everyone. My wife and daughters have sacrificed a lot and I thank them for their support. No one else can know what we have gone through. I hope I have entertained all the cricket fans and especially given a new definition to Test cricket. I cannot do the thing that we love the most without the fans.
Australia would like to win the Champions Trophy
Let us remind you that the year 2023 proved to be wonderful for the Australian cricket team. First this team defeated India by a huge margin of 209 runs in the final of the World Test Championship and after that created history by defeating India in the final of the ODI Cricket World Cup as well. Unfortunately, the Kangaroo team could not even reach the Super-8 of the 2024 T20 World Cup. Now this team will be eyeing the Champions Trophy to be held in Pakistan next year.
