Warner scores a ton in his first match post ban
What's the story
Former Australia opener David Warner scored a stunning century on his return to the cricket field. In his first game post the ban, ex vice-captain blazed to a quick-fire 130 against the Australia National High Performance in a T20 match. Notably, Warner has been banned from international cricket for 12 months by Cricket Australia. He was found guilty of ball tampering against South Africa.
Stunning comeback

The southpaw was in fine touch and it looked as if the ball-tampering scandal never happened. This was Warner's first game in two months and the 31-year-old played some eye-catching shots, which left several spectators in awe of him. Post the game, he was all smiles while mingling with the opposition. It clearly shows that he has moved on from the incident.
