Australian cricket star David Warner will "accept responsibility" for drink-driving, his lawyer told reporters on Thursday after a Sydney court hearing. The 39-year-old faces a "middle-range" drink-driving charge, court documents showed, after allegedly being more than twice the legal limit in Sydney in April.

Warner -- one of Australia's best-known sportsmen -- is accused of being at the wheel of a van and stopping short of a random testing site, before being breath-tested, arrested and taken to a police station.
