Australia vs Oman: David Warner, the senior Australian batter, was seen losing his way back to the Australian dressing room after getting out in the T20 World Cup 2024 match against Oman which was being played at the Kensington Oval in Bridgetown in Bridgetown, Barbados. The left-handed batter, who is playing his last international tournament, scored 56 off 51 as Australia beat Oman by 39 runs.
Warner opened the batting along with Travis Head and revived the Australian innings after they were reduced to 50/3 after a good spell of bowling from the opposition. Warner eventually fell in the 19th over, falling prey to Kaleemullah in the 19th over of the innings. However, instead of walking to the Australian change room, he lost his way and almost walked into the Oman change room before relaising that he had come the wrong way.

The incident even ignited laughter between the commentators who were on air. "This is a rookie mistake and Warner is not a rookie," said the broadcaster Mpumelelo Mbangwa.

Other than Warner, Marcus Stoinis also scored a half-century (56 off 51) as Australia posted 164/5 in their 20 overs. In response, Oman were kept down to 125/9 in their 20 overs. Stonis, after his performance with the bat, returned with figures of 3/19 off his 3 overs to emerge as the pick of the bowlers. Mitchell Starc (2/30) and Adam Zampa (2/24) were also amongst the wicket-takers as Australis started their campaign with a win.
