The selectors may have dropped out-of-form David Warner from the team for the ongoing one-day series against New Zealand but former stumper Adam Gilchrist believes the explosive batsman cannot be "written off".

Warner, who replaced an injured Michael Clarke in the side, could manage just 106 runs at an average of 17.66 in the first three ODIs and was subsequently dropped for the remaining two matches. Australia are trailing the series 1-2.
