David Warner retires from ODI cricket but can still play in the 2025 Champions Trophy!

The 37-year-old Australian batsman had previously said he would end his Test career after the Australia-Pakistan Test in Sydney, but Warner also confirmed he would retire from ODI cricket. However, he said the opener could be eligible for selection for the 2025 Champions Trophy.

Warner said winning this year’s World Cup in India was a big achievement, and he had been thinking about it for some time. I think it’s a huge accomplishment to overcome that and win against India.”

“So today I have made the decision to walk away from the form that has enabled me.” I’m going to play in other leagues around the world and somehow advance my one-day team a little bit. I know it is what it is.”The Champions Trophy is coming. If I’m playing decent cricket in two years and they need someone, I’ll be available.” He is Australia’s sixth-highest run scorer in the format, with 29 centuries, second only to former captain Ricky Ponting on the list of most tonnes by a countryman in ODIs. Ponting had played 205 more ODI innings than Warner.
