Top ten performances by David Warner across all formats

#6 109 vs South Africa (St Kitts 2016)

Warner is a prolific run scorer against South Africa

David Warner’s 109 off 120 balls against South Africa in 2016 was a sedate knock, but only by the lofty standards he has set for himself. His knock formed the backbone of the Australian score of 288 in the match.

The innings was studded with 11 fours and 2 sixes, and he, along with Usman Khawaja, forged a huge partnership and the Kangaroos were threatening to post a massive target. However, the South African bowlers did a great job and restricted them to a below 300 score.

Warner struck the first ball he faced in the innings for a four and looked in regal touch. The runs flowed freely from his willow throughout the course of the innings. With no Dale Steyn and Morne Morkel in its ranks, the South African bowling attack looked weak and could pose not pose any formidable challenge to the fluent left-hander.

The South African batsmen were well on course in the first half of the chase but they soon fell apart later handing the Aussies a comfortable victory. Once again, Warner was the chief architect of an Australian victory.
