Ahead of the AUS vs NZ T20Is, Warner recalls the hostile Kiwi crowd getting ‘personal’ in 2016

Ahead of the AUS vs. NZ T20I series, the opener of team Australia, David Warner, opened up on the ‘personal’ remarks made by the Kiwi crowd back in 2016.

The star opener of the Australian cricket team, David Warner, gets nostalgic about the hostile crowd in New Zealand ahead of the AUS vs. NZ T20I series. Warner had loads to complain about the alleged abuse from the crowd at Hamilton, Wellington, and Christchurch in 2016. He had called the comments made by the crowd ‘derogatory’ and ‘vulgar’.
Speaking to the media ahead of the 1st T20I, Warner says that the crowd got personal but noted that if it were to happen this time, then it was their character. He adds that if the fans had paid to abuse players, then they should ‘go back and lay on their beds’.
Warner said, “The crowd, yeah, they got personal, but if they have to get personal, that’s their character. I just go about my business. But that’s up to each individual; if that’s what they feel like they have to do, then so be it. If you want to pay your money to come and abuse people, you have to go back and lay in your own bed. We’re here to play the game of cricket that we love, enjoy, and put bums on seats to keep the game going.”
