David Warner eyes ‘final frontier’ wants to beat India in India in a Test series

Warner
also
hinted
towards
having
another
crack
in
trying
to
win
the
Ashes
in
England.

In
2019,
the
left-handed
batter
was
out
of
form
in
England
as
he
was
continuously
dismissed
by
Stuart
Broad.

“We
still
haven’t
beaten
India
in
India.
That
would
be
nice
to
do.
And
obviously,
England
away,
we
had
a
drawn
series
in
2019,
but
hopefully,
if
I
managed
to
get
that
chance
and
opportunity,
I
might
think
about
going
back,”
ESPNcricinfo
quoted
Warner
as
saying.

Warner
also
said
that
he
sees
age
as
no
barrier,
and
he
lauded
England
pacer
James
Anderson
for
setting
really
high
benchmark
in
Test
cricket.

“I
think
James
Anderson
sets
the
benchmark
for
older
guys
these
days.
We
look
up
to
him
as
we’re
getting
on
in
our
days.
But
for
me,
it’s
about
performing
to
the
best
of
my
ability
and
putting
runs
on
the
board.

“In
the
first
two
Tests,
I
actually
look
like
a
proper
batsman,
it’s
almost
like
I’ve
played
my
career
the
other
way
and
had
to
knuckle
down
and
respect
the
bowling
and
the
line
and
lengths
that
they
were
bowling
and
obviously,
the
hundred
eluded
me,”
said
Warner.

“I
feel
in
good
touch.
As
I
said,
I
was
out
of
runs
not
out
of
form,
so
hopefully,
I
can
put
some
more
numbers
on
the
board
leading
into
this
new
year,”
he
added.

Pacer
Scott
Boland
took
six
wickets
in
the
second
innings
as
Australia
defeated
England
by
an
innings
and
14
runs
in
the
third
Ashes
Test
here
at
the
Melbourne
Cricket
Ground
on
Tuesday.

With
this
win,
Australia
retained
the
Ashes
as
the
hosts
have
gained
an
unassailable
3-0
lead
in
the
five-match
series.
