Warner joins London Spirit in men’s Hundred but Anderson unsold in draft

Warner reunited with former Australia coach Langer
Anderson and Roy both ignored in latest draft

David Warner will call Lord’s home this summer. The former Australia batter is in line to make his Hundred debut after he was recruited by London Spirit in the competition’s latest draft, with Jimmy Anderson – another recent retiree from the international game – left unsold.

Warner will be reunited with his former Australia head coach Justin Langer, though the 38-year-old will not sit in the highest salary bracket for the men’s tournament. Jamie Overton (Spirit), Afghanistan’s Noor Ahmad (Manchester Originals), David Willey (Trent Rockets) and New Zealand’s Michael Bracewell (Southern Brave) all secured £200,000 deals, with Warner a rung below at £120,000.
