On Thursday, to celebrate his wife’s birthday, Warner took to Instagram to share a couple of pictures, accompanied by a caption that read:

“Walking into your 40s be like!! Big happy birthday to my wife @candywarner1. Cheers to getting through that decade. I hope you have an amazing birthday, the girls and I love you very much.”

The 38-year-old also had an exceptional 50-over career, appearing in 161 matches and amassing 6,932 runs at an average of 45.30, including 33 fifties and 22 hundreds. He was part of Australia's winning teams in the 2015 and 2023 ODI World Cups.

Additionally, he retired from the shortest format of the game following Australia’s exit from the 2024 T20 World Cup. The left-hander made his T20I debut in 2009 against South Africa and went on to represent Australia in 110 T20 games, scoring 3,277 runs at an average of 33.43, including 28 fifties and one century.
