David Warner becomes a father for the second time

Australia opener David Warner and wife Candice have become parents for the second time, as the couple took to social media to announce the arrival of a second daughter on Thursday.

Warner, who flew from Perth to Sydney following Australia's win over India in the first One-Day on Monday to be with Candice, revealed the couple had named their second daughter Indi Rae.

She is the younger sister of their first child, Ivy Mae.
