BENGALURU: A slog sweep, a slog scoop or a whip scoop? One of David Warner's mammoth maximum off Pakistan pacer Haris Rauf hit the rooftop at the M Chinnaswamy stadium on Friday. It was this showstopping performance which led Australia to victory against Pakistan.
The Australian opener loves his shots, but they are anything but fluke. To scoop the ball behind the square on the leg side, the opener retreated, crouched and with the ball in the 'arc' he unleashed the shot from the middle of his bat. It was a magician at work. Warner, 10 days shy of his 37th birthday, is always work in progress with plenty of tricks in his bag.
