‘This might be the last time we see Warner in the Orange Army’: Dale Steyn

South Africa fast bowler Dale Steyn feels the 2021 edition of the Indian Premier League could be David Warner's final season with the Sunrisers Hyderabad. Steyn's reaction comes after Warner, a day after being removed as captain of the side, missed out on being part of the team's Playing XI against Rajasthan Royals. Steyn feels that it would have been alright to appoint Kane Williamson as captain and still give Warner a game. But the South Africa fast bowler pointed out that he finds the decision to drop Warner 'strange' given his track record in the IPL and that if given a chance he would always have the Australia batsman in his team. Warner is the fifth on the list of IPL's highest run-getters, the only batsmen to score fifty half-centuries in the tournament, and a three-time Orange Cap winner, the most by any player. "It's strange that he isn't a part of the playing eleven. It's understandable if they want to change ownership of captaincy for the next season, and keep Kane there. But David is still a phenomenal batter and I would still keep him in the eleven. But this might be the last time we see Warner in the Orange Army," Steyn told ESPNCricinfo.
