It’s hard to imagine an Australian team with David Warner, but his untimely retirement from the 50-over format has only come as a big shock. Not only has he been one of the most explosive openers in the last decade and more, but also been one of the most consistent as well. His departure from the ODI setup will leave a huge void in the Aussie team, and his shoes will be difficult to fill.
