NEW DELHI: Australia's chief selector, George Bailey, has issued a caution against repeating past mistakes as veteran opener David Warner gears up to conclude his 12-year test career. Warner, named in Australia's 14-man squad for the first test against Pakistan, aims to bid farewell with a final appearance in Sydney in January.
Bailey stressed the need to avoid a potential fallout similar to the challenges faced post Shane Warne's retirement. "When you've had someone who's been so dominating in the role, it's just to temper the expectations of whoever is going to be the replacement there," cautioned Bailey, urging a measured approach in handling Warner's successor.
