Amazing scenes! David Warner breaks his bat and hits his head in BBL

Sydney Thunder pattern David Warner has been the shining light of his team in the ongoing match against Hobart Hurricanes in the Big Bash League (BBL) 2024-25. The match between the two teams will take place at Bellerive Oval in Hobart on Friday (January 10).

David Warner, who opened the innings, has given his team a good start in the ongoing match. The leading batsman has carried his good form into the ongoing Big Bash League, ensuring that he sets a huge platform for his team to post a big total.

After Sydney Thunder lost two wickets, David Warner held the fort for his side and made sure he had an edge. The opening batsman played some crip shots in his innings and makes sure that he stays there till the end and takes his team to the competitive total.

However, Warner did not have the kind of start he would have liked for his innings. The batsman was at the receiving end of a hilarious but nasty knock at the start of the innings that left many divided. The incident took place during the fourth over of the innings.

Riley Meredith bowled a full ball and Sydney Thunder skipper Warner was carried on. He missed the shot at mid-on, but what caught the attention of many was when the ball hit his bat, his bat broke with the handle displaced.

What was even stranger was the momentum of the bat swing, nearly hitting him in the head. Warner, at first, didn’t know what was going on, and the play was stopped for a while before the batsman changed his batsman and continued to bat.

Warner, after that knock, looked focused and although the innings was not as fluid as he would have liked, he made sure he hit a vital century for the team. The batsman would be keen to continue till the last and help his team to make a big total.

David Warner barely got support from other batsmen in the ongoing match

Warner has hardly received support from other batsmen in the ongoing game. The opening batsman got some support Sam Billingswho scored 28 runs as the duo added 34 runs. The rest of the batsmen have not been able to make big plays.
