Australia's David Warner has never played an ODI at this venue albeit leading Sun Risers Hyderabad to an Indian Premier League title in 2016. But when he steps onto the Chinnaswamy Stadium turf today, weather permitting, he will also become part of the 100-ODI club, joining his skipper Steve Smith. "It's a significant milestone for myself and my family. It's a dream come true to play even one game," said Warner yesterday ahead of today's fourth ODI.

"I'm extremely proud of where I am today. I never thought "I would come so far. I've learnt a lot in the early stages of my career. One, how to play the game; you can't just come out and tonk it from ball one like in Twenty20 cricket. And I sort of adapted that approach to four-day cricket and then Test match cricket. It actually allowed me to play the game properly and show myself that there's a lot more time in 50-over cricket than there is in 20-over cricket," added the hard-hitting Australian opener.
Talking about the present series and the fact that the Australians are down and out for the count, The New South Welshman put up a brave front. "At the end of the day, we're disappointed with the losses. But we always come here with the right frame of mind. We're here to a job, we're here to win every game that we come and face. Your disappointment lasts for 24 hours," said Warner.
