IPL 2022: Australia won the title of ICC T20 World Cup 2021. Australian batsman David Warner was declared ‘Man of the Tournament’. Warner performed brilliantly in this tournament and scored 289 runs in 7 matches at an average of 48.16. Warner also made headlines by playing an innings of 53 runs in the final match. At this time, Warner remains the subject of discussions in the cricket world. Meanwhile, great cricketer Sunil Gavaskar has made a big claim about this Australian player. His claim is about the next season of IPL.

What did Sunil Gavaskar say?
Sunil Gavaskar on Monday said opener David Warner will be one of the most sought after players in the IPL-2022 auction following his success in the recent World Cup. Gavaskar said that if Sunrisers Hyderabad decides not to retain him next year, Warner will get a hefty amount. Gavaskar told a news channel, “There will definitely be a lot of demand for Warner. Don’t forget that there are two new teams as well. Warner has experience, he has leadership qualities too. He is very energetic on the field. He Will definitely top the two new teams or those wanted by some other team, as it doesn’t look like Sunrisers is going to retain them.”

Former cricketer Gavaskar said, “To be honest, it is a bit difficult to say anything about this. He was made to sit in the hotel, while some normal players, who did not even make it to the playing XI, were on the field. Lack of form There must have been a lot more than that. As far as Australia is concerned, I think they are probably saying that this kind of thing was needed for the performance we have seen in this World Cup.”

Warner struggled with form in IPL 2021
Warner’s IPL 2021 season was very bad and Sunrisers Hyderabad removed him from the captaincy in the first phase. Whereas in the second phase, he did not get a place in the playing XI in many matches. In such a situation, Warner proved himself in the World Cup and performed well. There were also reports that Warner was not allowed to accompany the team to the stadiums in the UAE before performing well in the last few league games of IPL-2021.

Such was the performance in T20 World Cup 2021
In the T20 World Cup held in UAE after IPL, David Warner scored 289 runs in 7 innings at an average of 48.16 and emerged as the second highest run-scorer in World Cup 2021.
