David Warner then went on to signal a good gesture as he proceeded to present his cricket fans with a wonderful gift - his helmet and gloves. In a video that went viral online, a boy who managed to get hold of Warner's helmet was later bullied by other older boys as they took away the helmet leaving the kid heartbroken. On the other hand, a young girl managed to get hold of the gloves. Wath the video below.
Reckon the poor little guy in the blue CA hoodie might have been Warner’s intended recipient of the helmet?
