”I think every venue that we’ve gone to around here is kind of special knowing it’s going to be the last, walking off the field acknowledging the crowds,” Cummins said.

Warner has been Australia’s test opener since 2011, smashing 8695 runs at an average of 44.58 across 111 matches.
He has no intention to retire from international white-ball cricket, until at least after next year’s Twenty20 World Cup.
But after scoring just two centuries in the past four years, Warner’s Test days were clearly coming to an end.
Australia are no clearer on who will succeed Warner as Usman Khawaja’s opening partner, despite the team hosting the West Indies in a two-Test series next month.
Traditional openers Marcus Harris, Cameron Bancroft and Matt Renshaw have all done the job in tests before without being able to become a permanent member of the XI.
Australian greats Ricky Ponting and Mike Hussey this week both urged selectors to pick one of those three instead of the temptation to move Mitch Marsh up the order.
Cameron Green, who lost his spot at No.6 to Marsh during the Ashes, has also been floated as a possible replacement at the top for Warner.
