Career Overview/ Highlight : Axar Patel IPL From 2014 to 2024

Delhi Daredevils picked up David Warner in the 2009 IPL auction following his sublime knock against South Africa earlier that year. But his best came when he moved to Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2014.

He amassed 528 and 562 runs in the 2014 and 2015 seasons. In the 2016 edition, he slammed 848 runs, leading SRH from the front as they went on to win the trophy, beating Virat Kohli and his RCB in their backyard.

Although SRH couldn’t quite repeat the same performance next year, Warner’s consistent run continued as the opener slammed 641 and 692 runs in 2017 and 2019, respectively.

Warner saw a bitter fallout with Hyderabad as he was dropped from the side for no reason, after which he joined Delhi Capitals in the 2022 mega auction. He captained the Capitals in Rishabh Pant’s absence in the 2023 season.
