Cricket great David Warner told police he'd been drinking with a friend before allegedly blowing more than twice the legal limit in a random breath test, it has been reported. Warner was stopped at a roadside breath testing unit at Maroubra in Sydney's east on Easter Sunday. Police said Warner was driving a van that stopped and parked short of the testing site. Warner was one of Australia's most destructive batsmen until his retirement from Test cricket in 2024, and he has since appeared on the Fox Cricket commentary team. He will face Downing Centre Local Court on the mid-range drink driving charge on May 7.
