David Warner Open to Returning for Border-Gavaskar Trophy
Australia’s David Warner recently said that if the team needs him, he can return to the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Warner said goodbye to international cricket after the T20 World Cup-2024 this year. However, he will continue to play franchise cricket. But now Warner has expressed his desire to return to international cricket.
However, his wish has not been given air by Test team captain Pat Cummins who laughingly said a big thing. Warner said that if the team needs him, he can return to the Border-Gavaskar Trophy to be played against India at the end of the year.
Australia has not had a good opener in Tests since Warner’s departure. That’s why Warner had talked about returning from retirement. Also read- Cricket Australia’s big decision regarding David Warner, life ban lifted, what is the reason? ‘Waiting for you

Pat Cummins’ Lighthearted Response
This batsman would not have liked what Pat Cummins told him about Warner’s return. Cummins recently told in a podcast that he and Warner had talked about this issue and the Test captain has asked Warner to focus on commentary.
Cummins said, “Dave, we are very excited. We are taking it very seriously. We will keep talking about it. I met Warner a few days ago. He asked me what I think about it. I said good luck with captaining the Thunder. I will wait to hear your commentary on Fox.”
Who Could Replace Warner?
Warner has said this when Australia does not have an opening partner for Usman Khawaja in Tests. After Warner’s departure, Steve Smith was tried as an opener but he failed. Chief selector George Bailey has made it clear that now Smith will bat at number-4 in Tests. The selectors may give a chance to 19-year-old New South Wales opener Sam Constas and Victoria’s Marcus Harris.
Summary
- Warner’s Return Interest: Open to returning for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy if needed.
- Cummins’ Reaction: Suggested Warner focus on commentary.
- Potential Openers: Sam Constas and Marcus Harris are possible replacements for Warner.
This ongoing search for the right opener adds an exciting element to Australia’s preparation for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series.
