David Warner has been handed the chance of a hoped-for Sydney Cricket Ground farewell after being named in Australia`s squad for the first of three home tests against Pakistan. The squad named Sunday, which includes the 37-year-old opener, is only for the first test at Perth from Dec. 14-19. If he hold his place for the second test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground starting on Boxing Day, Warner will be in line for his dream farewell on his home ground in Sydney from Jan. 3 to 7. Warner`s recent test form has been mixed and he has averaged 28 in test matches since the summer of 2019 when he made a triple century against Pakistan at Adelaide. He has made clear his wish to end his Baggy Green career at Sydney while continuing to play for Australia in white ball cricket.
