Sir Viv Richards: Veteran Australia opening batter David Warner has silenced the critics with a swashbuckling century 164 off 211 balls on the opening day of the first Test against Pakistan on Thursday.

The 37-year-old needed just 125 balls to reach triple figures mark. During his remarkable innings, he struck 16 boundaries and four maximums, marking his 26th career century and his first since January 2020.

En route to his incredible innings, Warner entered the top five run-getters for Australia in Test cricket, leapfrogging Matthew Hayden and Michael Clarke. In the all-time list, his big hundred helped him surpass fellow swashbucklers Sir Viv Richards and Virender Sehwag.
