Australian swashbuckling opener David Warner has revealed that he consulted a psychologist in order to avoid playing rash strokes due to his impulsive decision-making in the upcoming World Cup.

Reflecting on his tendency to hit rash strokes, Warner said that he had actually spoken to his psychologist about it, adding that one has to try and work out in the heat of the moment to actually be relaxed and that was the process that he had to think through then in his head, News.com.au reported.

Warner further said that he had to learn how to play (one-dayers) just like Test match cricket, adding that he could get off to a good start, the report added.

Australia will open their World Cup campaign against England on February 14 in Melbourne.
