The 37-year-old David Warner had a stellar campaign in the ODI World Cup 2023 as he finished as the leading run-getter for Australia. While his Test retirement is impending, the southpaw has hinted at continuing to play the 50-over format at least till the next ODI World Cup in 2027.
Earlier this year, Warner announced that he would bid adieu to the red-ball format after playing the Test series against Pakistan at home in January 2024. After Australia won a record-extending sixth ODI World Cup title, many thought that Warner's swansong wasn't too far off. However, the diminutive batter has subtly hinted that he could carry on playing ODIs for quite some time now.
Responding to a social media post that said that the opening batter's World Cup career "ended with a 'glorious record" of 1527 runs, the experienced campaigner said. 'who said I am finished??'.
Warner also posted a picture on his Instagram handle, holding the World Cup. In the caption, he spoke about his amazing experience, playing the showpiece event in India. He also thanked everyone who was involved in organizing the tournament. He ended by saying: "See you in 2027." This also suggests that Warner is looking forward to playing in the next ODI World Cup which is scheduled to be co-hosted by South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Namibia.

The Paddington-born had an amazing campaign in the 13th edition of the ODI World Cup as he finished with 535 runs in 11 games at an average of 48.64 and a strike rate of 108.30. Warner also registered two centuries in the 10-team event.
Warner also received huge praise from fans as well as experts for his commitment to the field. He defied his age by saving runs and taking spectacular catches on the field. The veteran was scheduled to play the upcoming five-match T20I series against India but he withdrew a little more than 48 hours before the first encounter and all-rounder Aaron Hardie was named as his replacement.
