Greg Chappell: Ahead of playing his last Test match, David Warner has expressed gratitude towards Greg Chappel, who was the selector in 2011, for showing belief and faith in his talent and abilities for making a successful career in the longest format of the game.

Warner burst onto the scene as a white-ball specialist, but he recalled how his knock of 211 for Australia A on the tour of Zimbabwe in 2011, where Chappell was present, gave him the feeling about having a career in Test cricket.

"I think I owe that to Greg Chappell, who showed belief and faith in my talent and ability and the way that I play the game. In Zimbabwe (on an Australia A tour in 2011) I've got a memory of him when I was 40 not out at lunchtime and he comes up to me and goes, 'this innings will change your life if you score a hundred'.”
