The veteran Australian opener, David Warner made an attempt to recreate the ‘Cristiano Ronaldo Coke bottle moment’ during the post-match press conference after the T20 World Cup 2021 match against Sri Lanka. Ronaldo had removed the Coke bottles from his table in the press conference earlier this year, and this resulted in a loss of $4 Billion for Coca-Cola.
David Warner was seen during the same thing but was asked to put the Coke bottles back on the table. In fact, Warner even asked whether he needs to put the Coke bottles back as well. The 35-year-old also cheekily stated ‘If it is good enough for Cristiano, it is good enough for me’. Here is the video of the same:

David Warner regarding his form as he smashed 10 fours in his enterprising innings. Apart from Warner, Aussie skipper Aaron Finch and veteran batsman Steven Smith also contributed with some useful knocks.
