David Warner recently missed final T20I against England on October 14 due to neck injury.
Australian opener David Warner suffered a neck injury during the second T20I against England.
Ahead of the upcoming T20 World Cup 2022, Captain Aaron Finch said on Warner’s fitness and mentioned that he might miss the warm-up fixture against India on October 17 at the Gabba.
“I think he (Warner) will definitely be right for New Zealand, but I am not sure about the warm-up game against India. He was ok the day after he hit his head and then the following day his neck got really sore and stiff,” Finch told in a press conference in Melbourne.
“He probably should have been in a neck brace with the way he was carrying on about it the other day, so we will wait and see what he is like.”
“If he is fit he will play, but if he is still a little bit sore we will err on the side of caution. When you have got experienced players who know what they need to do to be ready for a tournament you are not too concerned whether they play that game or not,” he added.
