David Warner Smashes 22 Runs in One Over Against Mark Wood During AUS vs ENG Clash

David Warner rolled back the clock with 22 runs in a single over of Mark Wood.

Australian opener David Warner rolled back the years with a vintage display of power-hitting against England in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024. In a tournament where scoring freely has proven challenging, Warner’s blistering knock came as a welcome surprise for the Australian camp.

David Warner, in his final international appearance, showcased his trademark aggression, carving a rapid 39 runs off just 16 balls. Facing England’s Mark Wood in the fourth over, the southpaw unleashed a flurry of boundaries, including three towering sixes and a cracking four.

This assault on Wood was a pivotal moment in the innings. Warner, alongside fellow opener Travis Head (34 off 18 balls), took complete control of the powerplay overs. Their 70-run opening partnership in just 5 overs laid a solid foundation for Australia’s strong start in Barbados.

Having already secured the prestigious World Test Championship and the ODI World Cup in his swansong season, Warner is aiming to add another T20 World Cup title to his illustrious career and help Australia retain their 2021 championship crown.
