#9 David Warner

Australia v Pakistan - ODI Game 3
David Warner is a power packet opener

David Warner has been one of the most dangerous openers in ODI cricket. The Australian dasher is an explosive batsman with his power-packed hitting and destructive stroke-making ability.

Warner is a natural stroke maker who looks to attack the opposition with his wide array of shots. The diminutive opener is particularly severe against quick bowling and likes to cut and pull on pacy and bouncy tracks.

Given the aggressive style in which he bats, Warner has been pretty consistent averaging over 40 in ODIs. Warner has provided stability to the Australian batting order by forming a dependable opening duo with Aaron Finch.
