my favourite t2o batsmen is david warner
Warner is known for favouring the aerial route with his aggressive left-handed batting style, and ability to switch hit, using the back of his bat or by taking a right handed stance. He is an athletic fielder and also a part-time spin bowler. His bowling style is unique in that he mixes off-spin bowling with his more usual leg-spin bowling. At just 170cms Warner generates his power from strong forearms and uses his low centre of gravity to get underneath deliveries and hit them high in the air. In in a Twenty20 match for New South Wales in 2009, he hooked a six off Shaun Tait which landed on the roof of the Adelaide Oval, only a month after hooking the same bowler 20 rows back at the SCG.[2]
Warner's break through innings for the New South Wales Blues came against Tasmania when he smashed 165* to record the highest one day score by a Blues player ever.[3] Warner later backed this up with a 54-ball 97 also against Tasmania to narrowly miss the record for the fastest ever century in Australian domestic cricket.[4]
This introduction to the domestic scene led to Warner being included in Australia's twenty20 squad in January 2009 - effectively replacing Matthew Hayden.[5] Warner made his international debut for Australia in a Twenty20 International against South Africa at the Melbourne Cricket Ground on 11 January 2009. He made an immediate impact, scoring 89 off 43 balls with 7 fours and 6 sixes, including the second-fastest fifty in Twenty20 International history.[6] Warner was just 11 runs short of becoming only the second player after Chris Gayle to score a Twenty20 International century. His 89 was the second highest score on Twenty20 international debut; and the equal fifth highest score ever in Twenty20 internationals.[7]
I LOVE HIM BECAUSE HE PLAYED NICELY IN HIS FIRST T20 AGAINST SOUTH AFRICA
HE HIT 8 SIXERS AND 6 BOUNDRIES
