When he announced four days ago that he had lost his cap and needed to return it, Warner added that it has great sentimental value to him, which is true. A cricketer’s debut cap is something he cherishes all his life and losing it just before his last Test is something no cricketer wants. David Warner thanked everyone who participated in the search for his original baggy green cap.
David Warner thanked everyone involved in the search in a video he uploaded to social media where he holds his original green bag. He said, “Hello everyone, I am very happy and relieved to inform you that you have found my slack vegetables, which is great news. Thank you to everyone involved and I am extremely grateful. Qantas, the transport company, our hotels and the management of the team. Thank you.”
David Warner was happy to find his cap and showed his gratitude to everyone who helped in the search in his video. He explained the special feeling the cap has for any cricketer and said he would cherish it for the rest of his life.
In the video, he added, “I am happy and relieved to have my bag in my hands again. “Any cricketer knows how special his cap is and I will cherish it for the rest of my life.”

A Cricket Australia spokesperson said: “The bag they were packed in was found at the team hotel, with all the contents inside. “The movements of the missing bag remain unknown despite extensive searches, review of CCTV footage at multiple locations and efforts by numerous parties since Tuesday.”
When David Warner revealed that the backpack containing his original baggy green cap had not arrived, he also added that if someone took it, he would have no problem returning it. It is still unknown how the backpack arrived at the hotel, but Warner was delighted to have his hat with him.
Before his final Test, Warner wore a new cap on loan from Cricket Australia for several photo sessions when Australia played on the opening day. “It is a huge relief that David’s cap has been located and many thanks to everyone involved in the search.” said CA chief executive Nick Hockley. “We really appreciate it.”
