I Actually Had Lord's Pencilled In As My Last Test, Reveals David Warner Ahead Of Sydney Farewell
In June 2023, ahead of the World Test Championship final against India, Warner had expressed thoughts on retiring from Test cricket after the Australia-Pakistan Test at Sydney. But he had been named for first two Ashes Tests, which meant Warner’s run till then depended on his form, which has been good enough to have his swansong wish fulfilled.
"I said quite clearly in England before the World Test Championship (final), there was a lot of talk about me and my form. I wanted to nip it in the bud early. I said my ideal preparation to finish would be Sydney – that's ideal, that's fantastic. But I actually had Lord's pencilled in as my last Test, especially if I didn't go as well as I did in a partnership with 'Uzzie' (Usman Khawaja) at the top of the order."
