David Warner's wife Candice writes heartwarming note for husband post his international cricket retirement

David Warner has had a roller-coaster career playing for the Australian team. The flamboyant opener was the dearest child of controversies and that cannot take away credit from his prowess on the field. He has opened for the Australian team in a record 374 innings and has been their top scorer in T20Is. Talking about the shorter format of the game, Warner played his final international inning for the national side against India in a T20 World Cup 2024 game on June 24.

The southpaw has officially concluded his 15-year-long career with a loss and has paved the way for the younger generations to claim the coveted spot. The 37-year-old hit the lowest when the sandpaper gate scandal caught the world's attention. He was in solitude with his family by his side especially his wife, Candice Warner. After the southpaw’s climax game, Candice took to her Instagram account to highlight the impact Warner had on Australian cricket. 

“Congratulations @davidwarner31 on one of the best international cricket careers we have ever seen for our country. To have had a front row seat has been a privilege. We will miss seeing you play for Australia but we are so excited to have you home more. Love you. Incase you forgot! FACTS Only Australian person to have played 100 games across all 3 formats. 3rd player ever in the world. 49 International centuries across 3 formats (2nd only to Ricky Ponting) Most international centuries for an opener ever. 18995 combined international runs (2nd only to Ricky Ponting),” Candice captioned her post.
