The swashbuckling opener was going through a tough phase in his career as he hadn’t scored a ton in the longest format of the game for almost three years. There were some question marks over his place in the Australian side as there were some young openers still waiting for their opportunities. He had gone through a bitter episode on his captaincy ban overturn as well.

Warner’s double ton has now put the Aussie side on the driver’s seat in the Boxing Day test match against South Africa as they have got a vital lead of 197 runs with 7 wickets in their bank. Australia will now look to push the lead above the 300 mark on the third day in order to keep the South African side under immense pressure.
