Before David Warner's "farewell" Test series against Pakistan last week, former Australian pacer Mitchell Johnson sparked controversy by criticising the man harshly. Using his recent struggles in red-ball cricket as justification, Johnson launched an explosive tirade against the Australia opener, questioning the decision to give Warner a Test farewell. Johnson also accused Warner of denying responsibility for the 2018 ball-tampering scandal. Johnson claimed that even after five years, Warner has not completely "acknowledged" his involvement in the scandal and that his farewell remarks appear to be filled with "arrogance and disrespect" for the nation.
