Off the pitch, the destructive southpaw, who was celebrating his 33rd birthday, made the day of a young fan even before he started his carnage by gifting him his gloves while returning from practice.

As he headed to the dressing room, Warner nonchalantly handed over his pair of gloves to the young fan who seemed too overwhelmed to react at first, in a video shared by www.cricket.com.au.

“These young fellas won’t ever forget their trip to the cricket today. All class from David Warner,” said the message along with the video.

Warner on Sunday achieved another feat as he became the only third Australian cricketer to smash international hundreds in all three formats.

“You forget how busy the schedule actually is. You always get good support here in Australia. We thrive on people coming and watching u,” he added.

This was Warner’s maiden T20I ton and the destructive southpaw hit eight fours and three sixes in his innings.
