It is also known that Warner is trying to keep in touch with cricket with some shadow batting at home.

But in his recent Twitter post, the southpaw said he now wants to get back to the field as he is bored of shadow batting in the backyard.

"Ok, I am over it now, when can we get back out there. I am bored shadow batting in the backyard," Warner wrote on Twitter while sharing a video of his shadow batting practice.

The left-hander uploaded another video on Sunday (March 24), in which he can be seen baking with his family.

Under normal circumstances, David Warner would have been leading Sunrisers Hyderabad in the 13th edition of Indian Premier League (IPL). But the deadly pandemic forced the BCCI to suspend the cash-rich tournament until further notice.
