Australia opener David Warner confident despite horror Ashes 2019

Australia opening batsman David Warner's return to Test cricket hasn't gone according to plan. The left-hander had a poor outing throughout the Ashes 2019 series against England with pacer Stuart Broad right on top of him in the entire series. Despite that, Warner told Cricket Australia's official website that he is full of confidence ahead of the Test series against Pakistan at home.

Warner had a horrible time with the bat throughout Ashes series in England with a dreadful average of just 9.5. Pacer Stuart Broad dominated the Australian left-hander and wreaked havoc with his around-the-wicket line and removed Warner for the 7th time across his 10 innings to set a new Test record.

David Warner made a superb return to the ODI side, but his recent performances in Tests has raised questions on his credibility. The opener has scored more than 20 just twice in his past 15 first-class innings.
