Adelaide, Dec 9 (IANS) Australian opener David Warner Friday joined an elite list of iullustrious batsmen of the famed 'Invincibles' team during his knock of 145 runs on the opening day of the first Test against India at the Adelaide Oval here.

The left-hander hit his 10th Test century en route to an aggressive knock leading his team to a comfortable 354 for six wickets at stumps on day one.
