Star Australian opener David Warner on Tuesday announced that he will be back to playing cricket on 4th March for New South Wales after doing his rehab for a groin injury. <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Warner sustained the injury in November 2020 against India in the 2nd ODI and got ruled out for the rest of the limited-overs series and first two test matches. He returned to play in the last two tests not fully recovered but couldn't score much. <\/p>\r\n\r\n

While doing commentary for Fox cricket on Monday, Warner shook the fans after he said that it will take him six to nine months to recover from the groin injury. <\/p>\r\n\r\n

“Next week I’ll be picking up throwing. (That was) very difficult the last couple of weeks, even trying to throw,” Warner had said while commentating. <\/p>\r\n\r\n

“Now it’s all about lateral (movement), running between the wickets. It’s going to aggravate me for the next six to nine months. But I’m sure the medicos will help me out there,” he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

After his statement, the listeners assumed that the Australian opener won't be able to play and take part in various upcoming leagues and series including IPL 2021 where he will leading the Sunrisers Hyderabad franchise.   <\/p>\r\n\r\n

However, Warner had to write a clarification tweet where he mentioned that he will be returning to cricket on 4th March to play for New South Wales and that his injury will leave him with 'annoying pain' for the next six to nine months. <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Just to clarify a comment I made on commentary last night, that “My Groin”will need on going treatment and will have an annoying pain for at least 6-9 months. I am returning to play for NSW on the 4th March 2021 #horsesmouth<\/a><\/p>\r\n— David Warner (@davidwarner31) February 23, 2021<\/a><\/blockquote>\r\n
