Delhi Capitals' (DC) David Warner has lashed out at his critics through his reply to a fan's comment on the franchise's Instagram post on Saturday, May 18. DC posted a video of Warner batting in the nets with a caption that read, "D - Dynamite." There were a few comments on the post, trolling Warner for his poor form with the willow in IPL 2024.
Commenting on the post, one of the fans expressed:
"Kids are trolling Warner in comments...they don't know who is he."
Replying to the comment, the 37-year-old wrote:
"Some will never understand."
Here's the story:
A forgettable IPL 2024 campaign for David Warner
The 2016 IPL-winning skipper did not have a memorable outing with the Delhi Capitals in the ongoing edition of the league. The flamboyant southpaw had to miss a few matches for his side due to a finger injury he sustained mid-season. Overall, in the eight matches that he played in the IPL 2024, David Warner managed 168 runs at a strike rate of 134.40.
Last season though, he was in top form for the Capitals, amassing 516 runs, including six half-centuries. The immensely successful Australian batter is the fourth-highest run-getter in the history of IPL with 6565 runs to his name in 184 matches.
Meanwhile, despite having a great opportunity, Rishabh Pant's men failed to make it to the playoffs, having finished their campaign with 14 points from as many matches with a net run rate of -0.377. A 47-run defeat in a must-win fixture against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) at the Chinnaswamy Stadium reversed their fortunes, thereby making the playoff qualification difficult for them.
The Delhi Capitals finished the season on a winning note by overcoming the KL Rahul-led Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) by a margin of 19 runs in their last league game of the season at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi.
