The seasoned Australian cricket player David Warner has drawn attention to the “derogatory and vulgar” taunts he received from New Zealand supporters during his previous tour. The seasoned cricket player is getting ready to embark on his final national tour before hanging up his international boots. Warner is also approaching the conclusion of his storied white-ball career; he played his final Test match for Australia last month.
Prior to Wednesday’s opening Twenty20 international match in Wellington, the 37-year-old relived memories of the mistreatment he and his colleagues endured on the 2016 trip, which included personal jabs at his family. Warner voiced his worries about some of the spectators’ actions in New Zealand.
They became intimate. They are the kind of people who will get personal if necessary. I simply carry out my tasks. That depends on each person. You know, you have to go back to your own bed and lie there if you want to pay to come and abuse people. We get to play our favorite game of cricket,” Warner remarked.
We don’t anticipate waking up to six or seven hours of harassment. David Warner
In retrospect, Warner called the comments “derogatory and vulgar,” indicating how upsetting it was for him and his colleagues. He made a special note of how his family was affected by this kind of behavior.
“To tell the truth, it’s something we will always think about. Whether you’re at home or not, you’ll experience abuse of some kind. When we get up, we don’t anticipate being harassed for six or seven hours. The disturbing issue was that I wouldn’t want my two girls to be in the crowd listening to that kind of material, he continued. Some of the content was quite offensive and disgusting.
Warner noted that the taunts went beyond lighthearted remarks, to the extent that players were forced to voice their concerns and ask for the removal of fans who were inconsiderate enough to cause constant disruptions.
“Can you get rid of this bloke, because it’s just not necessary?” was the concern aired by a few of the lads, according to Warner.
Warner recognized the importance of the Australia-New Zealand rivalry, even in spite of the bad recollections of his visits through that country.
It’s been a long time since my last visit, which I believe was in 2016. Zealand has visited us perhaps six or seven times during that time, in my estimation. That being said, the left-hander said, “It’s fantastic to be back here.
Two Test matches and three T20Is are being played by Australia in New Zealand. Interestingly, T20Is and ODIs will now be counted toward the Chappell-Hadlee Trophy. Wellington will host the series’ premiere on February 21.
