Ashes centurion Warner taunts England for 'having scared eyes' during Gabba Test

Australian centurion David Warner has taken another sledge at England, saying that the tourists looked 'frightened' on Saturday, the third day of the Ashes opener at the Gabba.

Warner, who scored his first Ashes Test century, and skipper Michael Clarke led the way with their tons to put Australia in an overwhelming position and poised to go one-up in the five-Test series after losing 3-0 to England three months ago.

According to Sport24, Warner, who raised his fourth Test ton with 124 off 154 balls but continued to pepper the English after stumps, said that England is on the back foot at the moment as his side's bowlers are bowling fast, adding that it seems they looked 'scared' at the current situation in the game.

The report mentioned that England would have to create Ashes history to win at the Gabba after Clarke set the beleaguered tourists an improbable 561 runs to win with a declaration, but more likely they will be trying to salvage a draw.

Warner further said that a victory at the Gabba would be a massive boost for Australia going into the rest of the series if they get a 1-0 lead, adding that if the Tests were back to back it would be quite tough on the English bowlers to try and back up.
