About David Warner
David Warner is an Australian batter and left-handed opener whose international career began in 2009. The ICC lists him as a Batter, left-handed batter and leg-break bowler, with an international career debut in 2009 and last match in 2024.
Born on 27 October 1986 in Paddington, New South Wales, Warner made an unusually early international breakthrough. Cricket NSW records that he became the first Australian since 1877 to represent Australia without a first-class match, then scored 89 from 43 balls on T20I debut against South Africa.
Warner later adapted his attacking approach to Test cricket. Cricket NSW records an unbeaten 123 in only his second Test and a score of 335 not out against Pakistan in Adelaide in 2019, while also noting five centuries in eight Tests after his return from the 2013 Ashes-related suspension.
In the Indian Premier League, Warner captained Sunrisers Hyderabad from 2015 to 2017 and led the franchise to its first IPL title in 2016. That captaincy connects him to the 2016 Fair Play Award season, in which Sunrisers Hyderabad received the team award.
The Fair Play recognition must be described precisely: the official IPL guidance defines it as a team award judged by umpires for upholding the spirit of the game, including respect for opponents, the laws and umpires. Sunrisers Hyderabad—not Warner personally—was the 2016 winner, so this profile records a historical captain-and-team association rather than an individual conduct award.
