David Warner Anticipates Lord's Reception with London Spirit in The Hundred

David Warner, now 38, is preparing for his return to Lord's this summer as he plays for the London Spirit in The Hundred tournament, following a controversial incident during the 2023 Ashes. He acknowledges the likelihood of being booed by the crowd, especially after his altercation with MCC members during the last series, but he remains unfazed, stating, 'If they want to boo me, boo me.' Warner expressed excitement about performing in front of the passionate English crowds and emphasized the importance of support for his team rather than himself. He also commented on the upcoming Ashes series, suggesting that the aggressive 'Bazball' approach may not be effective in Australian conditions. Warner is hopeful for a positive reception but is prepared for mixed reactions as he walks through the Long Room to the changing area. His signing for £120,000 marks a significant moment in his T20 career after previous setbacks in the draft.
