David Warner,
the in-form opener for the Delhi Capitals shared a touching image of his
daughters Ivy Mae and Indi Rae crying after being dismissed on 66 in the chase
of Royal Challengers Bangalore’s 189 at the Wankhede Stadium on April 16.

Warner’s
Instagram photo shows one of his children sobbing, while the other looks on in
disbelief as her father walks back to the dressing room. In his take on the
situation, the player wrote late on Monday – “God bless, they
(daughters) now understand the game very much and feel it. So lucky to have my
kids know what we do, but more importantly, it teaches them that you can’t
always win. We all give 100 per cent every time we walk onto that field, no matter
what. #cricket #passion #ipl.”

Warner was
on a roll, having struck a blazing 38-ball 66 that included four boundaries and
five sixes before being caught LBW by Sri Lanka’s Wanindu Hasaranga.

Following
the loss, DC head coach Ricky Ponting stated that Warner had come under immense
pressure as runs dried up at the other end, forcing him to play strokes he
would never have played if runs were flowing from his teammates.

David Warner
and Prithvi Shaw powered DC to a 50-run lead in 4.4 overs in response to Royal
Challengers Bangalore’s 189. However, once Shaw was gone, DC failed to maintain
the same run rate as Mitchell Marsh struggled to find his timing.

The partnership
between the two Australians was entirely the work of David Warner. Mitchell
Marsh, despite his best efforts, was unable to connect with the ball. While batting
in the middle, his rustiness was obvious.

Earlier in
the day, RCB were struggling after losing four wickets for 75 runs, but 50s
from Glenn Maxwell and Dinesh Karthik helped them reach a massive total of 189.
The Capitals were defeated by a score of 16 runs after Warner was dismissed out
of the match.
