Australia’s star opener David Warner is known for his flamboyant attitude on and off the field. His cool approach during the 3rd day’s play of the on going Rawalpindi Test match against Pakistan was one of the biggest talking points.
During the ongoing Pakistan vs Australia Test match, Warner was seen smiling, laughing, dancing, and enjoying every bit of the match. While Warner shared a few light moments with fast bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi, the duo appreciated one another’s skills with the bat and ball respectively. However things weren’t just limited to being light-hearted on the part of Naseem Shah.
The 19-year-old Pakistani speedster put a target on Warner’s back during day three of the first Test as Australia tried to bat itself back into the contest in Rawalpindi. Naseem Shah, who was doing good against Warner, especially with the short ball on a few occasions, didn’t refrain from sledging the left-handed batter.
Shah turned to the short ball and eventually struck Warner who misjudged the bounce. Shah grabbed the opportunity to try and intimidate the batter, who is near twice his age, by walking right down the pitch to Warner. Naseem had some advice for David Warner, however, his attempt to intimidate Warner failed badly.
However, Warner just laughed and smiled at the teenage pacer’s effort to have a verbal duel with the veteran. The next ball dropped at the feet of Warner who scooped the ball up and placed it back in the hand of Shah, who was still heated. Warner gave him another smile and a pat on the shoulder before carrying on with his business.
