David Warner thankful to Greg Chappell for guidance – Cricket News Update
Australia’s blistering opening batsman, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Gregory-Stephen-Chappell-c60820, and thanked the legendary cricketer for his crucial guidance.
Warner performed outstandingly in the Champions League Twenty20 and came up as the highest-run getter in the tournament – amassing 328 runs including a couple of tons in just five games.
By lashing back-to-back centuries in the CL T20, Warner became the first player ever to hit two consecutive hundreds in the shortest version of the game.
Although, His team, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/New-South-Wales-c823, failed to make it to finale and lost the semi-final at the hands of Royal Challengers Bangalore, the left-handed batsman gathered a lot of praise for his marvellous 123-run-knock.
While expressing great delight over displaying a superb recital with the bat, Warner showed gratitude to Chappell, saying that the former Aussie skipper was instrumental in improving his game over the last few months.
"Chappell has been wonderful in the way he has guided me through with my batting in the last few months. I think he is a great cricketer and I've learnt a lot from him,"
Warner was quoted as saying.
He meanwhile hoped that his good run in the Champions League will help him do well in the upcoming limited-over clash against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/South-Africa-c757, starting with the first T20I at Cape Town on October 13, 2011.
The 24-year-old batsman has definitely cemented his place in the Australian limited-over squad but does not want to rest on his laurels.
He shared that his next big challenge is to earn a spot in the national Test side, insisting that he does not want to be called as just a T20 specialist.
"I started my career with T20 and it has helped me develop as a player. However, my goal is to make my Test debut next year. T20 is a great forum to score runs and a stepping stone to ODIs and Tests. It's important that a player is not hemmed in by one particular
format," added the NSW batsman who holds a splendid strike rate of 144.32 in T20 internationals.
