…..and all of his off field shenanigans were brushed aside as classic Aussie larrikanism. Regarded as an icon on the Mt Rushmore of cricket. His personality enhanced this reputation.
Just funny is all……
There's a mighty difference between might rightly be regarded as "shenanigans" and the off-field spats and cheating that Warner specialised in.
And now Davey is trying to pretend his on-field behaviour was just an act! I'm not buying that.
Shane Warne was always enjoying himself, and he also mostly tried to make other people have fun. Warner is the sort of person who brings others down.

Smith the opener dares quicks to bounce him with new ball
Steve Smith says the world’s quickest bowlers will have to risk wasting their new ball if they want to pummel him with short-pitched bowling now that he’s an opening batsman.

How many Australian batsmen average UNDER 40 ?
Green batting at 4 is a bit of a gamble from the Aussies. But his FC average is 46.77
Also:
Green is averaging 65.09 in 24 Sheffield Shield innings at No.4 and 66.03 in his last 38 Shield innings overall -
@MN5 poor Windies, must be a hard watch for their fans these days. We've certainly been there back in the days of Pocock opening etc.

Yeah but we’ve had what I’d consider two hall of fame cricketers. At a guess I’d say they’ve maybe had 15-20 or so.
The decline is SO fucken bad.

good start for the new 1 and 4
Continuation of the last 12 months where Khawaja is going to have to do the heavy lifting
