IND vs AUS 3rd Test: Entire Australian top-order is under pressure - Warner

It's not just Usman Khawaja but the entire Australian top-order that is feeling the "pressure" despite the series-levelling win in Adelaide, reckons former opener David Warner. While the under-fire Marnus Labuschagne found form with a resolute fifty, batting mainstay Steve Smith and rookie opener Nathan McSweeney continue to search for runs in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy. "I think the pressure is on all the top order, not just Uzzie', the former Australian left-hander was quoted saying by Fox Cricket. Travis Head smashed a memorable hundred at home as Australia bounce back to level the five match series after a crushing loss in Perth. "Travis came out and counterpunched and scored a brilliant hundred, and we know he's capable of doing it. But it's everyone else around supporting that," said Warner. "It's not just one player in particular, it's the top six scoring bulk runs and making sure you're giving rest to the fast bowlers. It was a fast-paced Test in the first game, bu

Coaching future ambition, David Warner predicts end of sledging in cricket

Batting great David Warner has expressed his ambition to take up coaching in future, while also predicting that sledging will be gone from the sport within the next decade as players of different countries share dressing rooms in domestic leagues like IPL. The 37-year-old Warner played his final Test at the SCG on Saturday, helping Australia sweep the series 3-0 against Pakistan. He has already announced retirement from ODIs but will be available for T20Is and T20 leagues across the globe. Yeah, I've got ambitions later down the track to potentially coach," Warner told 'Fox Cricket'. "I'll have to speak with the wife first to see if I'm allowed a few more days away. The left-handed opening batter was known for his aggressive behaviour against opposition players before the Cape Town ball-tampering saga in 2018. Earlier this week, Australian opener Usman Khawaja claimed that the coaching staff instructed Warner to sledge opponents during the early stages of his Test career, with the
