This player who scored 12500 runs in T20 did not get any respect in IPL, now he will play in Pakistan.
In November last year, a mega auction was organized for IPL 2025. During this time, all the 10 teams of the tournament showered a lot of money on the players. However, some legendary players did not even get a price. One name in this was also that of Australian cricketer David Warner. Warner was not even asked by any team. The result was that he remained unsold and will not be seen playing in the coming season. After being ignored in IPL, Warner has now turned to Pakistan. He has registered his name in the draft of the Pakistan Super League.
