The veteran Australian opener David Warner will be missing the remaining part of the white-ball series against India and he is also doubtful for the pink ball Test between the two teams. However, his wife, Candice, who is quite popular on social media, recently cracked a joke on a radio show, saying she has nothing to do with the groin injury of David Warner.
Candice Warner revealed that people have asked her what she had done to her husband, considering they were reunited after a long gap following the Aussie cricketer’s return from the UAE and the subsequent quarantine period. During a recent appearance on the radio show ‘Triple M’, she said, “We only sort of reunited after four months apart, a couple of days prior… and everyone’s like, ‘What have you done to him?”
She further added, “I’m like, ‘It wasn’t me! It was not me’. Sorry Australia.”

David will be looking to regain match fitness in time for Australia’s upcoming Test series against India which starts on December 17. Head coach Justin Langer has said that he is unsure about the opener’s availability for the pink-ball Test.
As per the quotes in SEN’s Sportsday WA, Langer said, “He’s strained his abductor in his groins and they tell me it’s a very painful injury. It looked like he got shot by a gun. He was in incredible pain in the change-rooms. We’ve just arrived in Canberra, so we won’t see him again for probably five or six days until we get back to Sydney.”
He further added, “I’m not holding my breath that he’ll be ready for the first Test match, but with that said, he’s the sort of elite professional who will be doing literally everything possible to be ready for it. We’ll see what happens, but he’s going to be a loss that’s for sure.”
