David Warner Scores 200 in the 100th Test Match- Only the 2nd Batter After Joe Root to Achieve the Milestone

David Warner scored 200* in his 100th Test match and the second Test match of the AUS vs SA Test Series. He became only the second batter after Joe Root to achieve this milestone. David Warner has helped Australia gain a massive lead on the South African team. He is currently unbeaten after a double-century but was called back into the dressing room due to suffering from a medical issue.

David Warner has smashed 16 fours and 2 sixes in his double hundred. He achieved the milestone by smashing Ngidi for a four. The left-handed opening batter celebrated by getting down onto his knees and pumping his fists in absolute delight. He removed his helmet to acknowledge the claps and praises of the crowd and his teammate.

Australia has already gained a lead in excess of 140 runs on Proteas on the second day of the Test match itself. With his massive unbeaten 200, Warner has already almost ensured a win for the Kangaroos in the 2nd Test match. If Australia goes on to win this match, they will also win the series, as they have already defeated South Africa in the first Test of the three-match series.

Warner answered his critics in style by scoring his third double-hundred in Test matches. He left the field due to a medical issue after reaching the landmark of 200 runs. Cameron Green replaced him in the middle. It does not seem likely that David Warner will bat again in this inning.
