Centurion David Warner says a mixed and calculated hard-at-it method within the first 10 overs is the important thing to his terribly profitable opening-wicket alliance with Travis Head in ODIs as Australia celebrated their newest hammering of South Africa.
Warner and Head now common a Bradman-esque 100.55 as a gap pair after bludgeoning South Africa’s bowlers for a 109-run union to arrange Australia’s complete 123-run win within the second ODI at Bloemfontein on Saturday (Sunday morning AEST), securing a 2-0 sequence lead.
To put these numbers into context, Warner and longtime companion Aaron Finch averaged 47.94 as a gap pair, whereas Australia’s most prolific opening duo, Adam Gilchrist and Matthew Hayden, averaged 47.44.
Warner and Head’s output collectively just about doubles that of iconic West Indian duo Gordon Greenidge and Desmond Haynes (52.55), and India’s legendary Sachin Tendulkar and Saurav Ganguly (49.32).
