To me he looks really awkward when he is batting, always looking to cover drive and square cut at most Deliveries.

Think he's a touch old these days, must be in his 60s but love him in Cross of Iron.

He's more than good enough to play the only format he does for Australia. Anything else is a different question.

Favours the legside tbh.

For me he is for 2020's, never ever will play test cricket and isn't that good of a one day batsmen at the moment either.

Warner naturally favours the off-side, very strong through point.

In longer forms of the game, he thrives on width; the "width predator" tag that James Brayshaw is very correct. He opens himself up in Twenty20 cricket to allow him a swinging arc when the ball is over the pegs.

I think he could quite definitely be a quality first class cricketer, if given a chance to bat as himself, and at number 5 or 6. That's where he's made to play in the longer forms of the game. He was seen as a super finisher in OD cricket as a youth, and I think he could possibly carve out a role like that in the future.

Not that old yet is he Jack?

I imagine time's on his side in terms of development. Could see him being a very handy ODI player once he learns to play the right tempo for the situation. Can't say I've seen any of him in longer forms at all.

He's a gun. I'm sure he'll become a mainstay in ODIs soon, and definitely belongs in Australia's T20 team.

rate him higher then Phil Hughes Aussies usually develop their talent will not be surprised if he becomes a test regular ones he learns more control.

Needs to break into a half-strength NSW line-up before the words Test Cricket are mentioned in the same breath as David Warner. Grinds my gears when Warner is on a rampage and the calls come as to why he isn't in the Test squad, some Australian commentators are the worst.

Great Twenty20 cricketer though, proven success at International, IPL and Big Bash levels. Will play ODI cricket again, hopefully as a lower order batsman.
