Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], May 5 : David Warner on Thursday scored his 89th half-century in T20 cricket, surpassing the West Indian legend Chris Gayle for most half-centuries in the shortest format of the game.
The Aussie accomplished this feat during match number 50 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 between Delhi Capitals and Sunrisers Hyderabad at Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai.
Gayle has 88 T20 half-centuries in the T20 format followed by other prolific batters like Virat Kohli (77), Aaron Finch (70) and Rohit Sharma (69).

It was not a day to remember for SRH's bowling attack as it was smashed all over the park by DC batters.
