WTC Final: David Warner Will Score ‘Truckload Of Runs’ Reckons Usman Khawaja

Ahead of the WTC Final 2023 clash against India, Australia opener Usman Khawaja has heaped praise on long-time teammate David Warner and backed the southpaw to do well in the upcoming tour.

The Australian team is set to face India in the final of the World Test Championship (WTC) from June 7 at the Oval in London. Overall, Warner has had a poor performance by his own standards. His excellence was on display last year when he scored a magnificent 200 in his 100th Test against South Africa in the Boxing Day Test in Melbourne.

But now Warner will look to recover from his poor form and showcase his true skill and experience.

“Actually, in the last few days I have seen Davey batting in the nets, it is the best. It is fantastic to watch. com.au.

“I’ve played a lot of cricket with him and I’ve batted at the other end throughout my career – in Test cricket or at state level – and you just can tell when he’s going well,” the Australia opener said.

Khawaja said he would not be surprised if Warner scored a “truckload of runs” in England.

“He’s an aggressive player, he usually plays a lot of shots and you can see when that’s happening. I wouldn’t be surprised if he comes out and scores truckloads of runs here, that’s what Davy He can do it. Every time he has his back against the wall, it feels like when he scores runs,” he said.
