David Warner celebrated the century with his trademark style

The star left-hander was recently involved in an online feud with his former teammate Mitchell Johnson who questioned the Australian team selection for including Warner in the Test series to just bid him a farewell. Johnson believes that Warner doesn’t deserve to be included in the squad as he has been struggling in the longer format for a while. However, Warner’s century might be enough to shut down Johnson’s statements.

After hitting the century, Warner celebrated the achievement in his trademark manner as he jumped and punched the air. He also sent a flying kiss, however, it is unknown for whom it was but fans are suggesting that it was a sweet reply to Johnson. However, the upcoming matches in the series against Pakistan promise to be a fitting tribute to Warner’s cricketing legacy.
