Gambhir slams Warner, says it’s pathetic display of spirit of game

Former India opener Gautam Gambhir has slammed David Warner for hitting a double-bounced delivery off Mohammed Hafeez for a six during their semi-final win over Pakistan, saying it was a “pathetic display of spirit of the game.”

In the eighth over of Australia’s run chase, the first ball from Hafeez slipped out of his hand and bounced twice. Warner moved outside leg and swung it over deep mid-wicket for a six.

From the subsequent no ball, Warner got two more runs. Thanks to that six, Australia got 13 runs from that over. “What an absolutely pathetic display of spirit of the game by a Warner! #Shameful What say @ashwinravi99?” Gambhir tweeted trying to imply that Warner should have left the delivery as its had slipped out of Hafeez’s hand.
