The debate intensified further on Thursday (September 30), when the Australian opener posted a cryptic message on his Instagram story. The message read: “It’s not about who is real to you face, it’s about who stays real behind your back.”

This is the first time David Warner has  not been one of the highest run-getters for SRH for Sunrisers Hyderabad since he started playing for the franchise. This season he has scored only 195 runs in 8 innings which attracted a lot of critcism. But his previous seasons in the Orange jersey have been no less than prolific.

Since 2014, the southpaw scored – 528 (2014), 562 (2015), 848 (2016), 641 (2017), 692 (2019), and 548 (2020) – a whopping amount of runs for SRH and was almost every time the highest run-scorer of the team. Warner should feel hard done if he is released by the franchise ahead of the mega auction after just one bad season.
