Australia, who have already sealed the ODI series with one match to go, will miss the service of David Warner for the remaining white-ball games. In the wake of it, Warner’s wife Candice cracked a light-hearted joking stating that she might have played a role in the injury.
Incidentally, Warner sustained a groin injury while fielding in the second ODI at the Sydney Cricket Ground. Warner limped off in the fourth over of the second innings having tumbled in the field to save a single from the bat of India opener Shikhar Dhawan.
