Justin Langer's contract offer kick in the face but he lost wrong players, reveals David Warner

David Warner has become the latest marquee player to reveal his thoughts on the entire Justin Langer saga that played out across 2022 after Amazon Prime premiered the second season of their documentary on the Australian Cricket Team titled 'The Test.' The veteran criticized the way in which the legendary Kangaroo cricketer was treated by the primary cricketing authority of his nation albeit he expressed awareness over the circumstances that dictated the logic behind the decision.

The resignation was followed by some to-and-fro between the former head coach, players, and the board, with Langer alleging some players in the team were 'cowards' for complaining behind his back instead of confronting him for his stern approach.   

The documentary also carried testimonies from Test and ODI skipper Pat Cummins as well as all-format pacer Josh Hazlewood who seemed to have contrasting views on the matter. 

"The Ashes, it all came to a head because his contract came up. There was nothing out of the blue. We had spoken about a lot of these things over the previous 18 months to two years He was brilliant when we needed him in those initial years," Cummins said on the issue.
