David Warner, the veteran Aussie opener and a legend of the game has roared back into form against South Africa in the second ODI with a brilliant century off just 85 balls. Warner was under immense pressure coming into this game with string of low scores behind him, but the man has stood up under pressure yet again and has shut all the outside noise with a swashbuckling century.

David Warner who scored 2-ball duck in the first ODI against South Africa, looked in positive mood right from the onset in this game and along with Travis Head took Australia off to a flier. Head departed on 64 off just 36 balls and soon Marsh followed him, but Warner just kept getting better and better and kept the pressure on the Proteas all the way. He got to his century with the boundary as well off the bowling of Shamsi in the 30th over and it is his 5th ODI century against the South Africans. Warner was all pumped up in his celebration and came up with trademark Warner jump to celebrate what has been a memorable knock from the Southpaw.

Warner was eventually cleaned up by Phehlukwayo on 106 off 93 balls in the 33th over but Australia are still in a strong position at the time of writing with 260 runs on the board and just three wickets down. Labuschagne is batting on 85 off 67 balls and is looking in great touch as well and he has Josh Inglis now for his company.
