"My Kids Want To Know Why I Can't Get 100s Like Jos Buttler": David Warner

After registering their third win in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season on Wednesday, Delhi Capitals batter David Warner said that the bowlers made life easier for the batters after bowling Punjab Kings out for 115. In the match against Punjab Kings, David Warner smashed an unbeaten 60 to lead the Covid-affected Delhi Capitals to a thumping nine-wicket victory over PBKS at Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai.

With the knock, Warner went on to register his third successive half-century and his 53rd in the tournament. He hit 10 fours and one six in his 30-ball knock. The left-handed batter also went past 1,000 runs against Punjab Kings and is only the second player in IPL history to do so against a single team.

"I think the bowlers did a fantastic job and made it easier for us. We had to go hard in the powerplay during the chase. It was a different surface compared to the last night, but credit to our bowlers. Was grateful that we were able to get out of our rooms and play tonight," said David Warner in a post-match presentation.

Warner was in an 83-run opening standoff in just 6.3 overs with the opener Prithvi Shaw. After another spectacular performance with the bat, the opener said his daughters wonder why he cannot get hundreds like Jos Buttler who is the Orange Cap holder this season and has already smashed two centuries for his team Rajasthan Royals.

"I was just trying to be positive and am happy to have played with Shaw.. For me it's about sticking to the basics and I tried to put my best footwork forward, hopefully, I'll be able to do going forward. My kids just want to know why I cannot get a hundred like
