Australia's cricket icon David Warner, known for his remarkable achievements peppered with controversies, has ended his 15-year-long international career. Warner's final match saw an unceremonious exit from cricket following Australia's loss in the T20 World Cup Super Eight phase. His legacy includes over 19,000 international runs across all formats.

Australia's cricket legend David Warner has brought the curtains down on a stellar 15-year international career, marked by impressive feats and notable controversies. His journey concluded unceremoniously after Australia's T20 World Cup elimination in the Super Eight phase following a defeat to Afghanistan.

Warner, 37, who debuted in international cricket in 2009, made his final appearance in an Australian jersey during their 24-run loss to India. Despite his low-key exit, Warner holds an indelible mark on the sport with 3,277 T20 runs and close to 19,000 runs in international cricket.

However, his career wasn't without its dark chapters. Warner's involvement in the infamous 2018 sandpaper gate scandal led to a one-year ban and a lifetime leadership ban. Despite this, Warner's contributions to the game, including leading Sunrisers Hyderabad to an IPL title, remain significant.
