Australian captain Pat Cummins speaks on David Warner's retirement after the opening batter scored 57 in his final Test innings.
Transcript
00:00 One thing is the style that he plays and today he's run a ball 50-odd on a tricky wicket.
00:05 But also in a test cricket you play in all kinds of conditions and losing someone who's played 100 test matches
00:12 is pretty hard to feel because you know he's played on those kind of wickets all around the world before.
00:17 He knows what works, what doesn't. He brings out the reverse sweeps and starts using his feet towards the spinners
00:22 and gets ahead of the game quickly. So yeah, a good reminder of what experience and high class cricketer Davey is
00:27 and we're going to miss. It's always box office with Davey. There's always something going on.
00:31 Even if he misses out on the runs, does something in the field or he does a dance on the sideline,
00:35 I think we're going to miss that. We spend a lot of our lives on the road in hotel rooms when there's not much going on
00:40 but Davey always brings that energy to the group. Every group needs a couple of people like that
00:44 or else it can get pretty mundane. So yeah, we're going to miss him.
