Will Miss Playing Cricket With You: David Warner's Heartfelt Post For Kane Williamson
David Warner shared a series of photos with Williamson on Instagram and captioned the post as: "Going to miss my breakfast time with the Williamson's and I will miss playing cricket with you brother."
New Delhi: Australia's David Warner, whose name was included in the list of 'marquee players' for the IPL 2022 mega auction, was bought by Delhi Capitals for Rs 6.25 crore. The left-handed star opener returned back to Delhi after a long nine year gap.
As Warner's journey with the IPL 2016 champions Sunrisers Hyderabad came to an end, he took to Instagram to share a heartfelt post for Kane Williamson, adding that he'll 'miss playing cricket with his brother.'
Warner and Williamson shared a dressing room together for a few years as the duo played for Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL. However, the SRH management suddenly removing Warner as skipper last year meant he wasn't retained by the franchise ahead of IPL 15's mega auction. It was Williamson who replaced Warner as the new SRH skipper then. Last season, Warner could play only eight matches and scored just 195 runs.
