David Warner: Cricket Superstar Turned TikTok Sensation

If you aren’t following David Warner on social media, you’re definitely missing out on a lot! With the lockdown bringing everyone’s life to a standstill, a majority of people took to the internet to take on new hobbies and challenges. Cricketers weren’t immune to this transition either with many giving their fans a glimpse of their candid self over the internet. However, the one player who has taken this newfound fascination to another level and surprised one and all with his antics is Warner.

The Australian opener, who seems to be a mean man filled with rugged passion and competitiveness on the field, has given us a complete new peek into his off-field personality. Warner has become an absolute star on TikTok, where he breaks the internet almost every time he posts a video with his family or himself.

Here we take a glance at his content and shortlist the best ones as well as the one’s that didn’t quite impress. If you’re reading this Mr Warner, we suggest you take notes!

 

1. PROVING UTENSILS CAN BE A GREAT PROP

Are you bored with cooking for yourself in the kitchen in this prolonged lockdown period? Don’t worry, you aren’t the only one. Looks like the Warner family was as bored as us of the mundane kitchen work and decided to spice things up. Here, the Australian with his wife and daughter recreates 20th Century’s theme song using utensils as the prop. Definitely, something we can give a shot, too.

 

2. JUGAAD WORKOUT

Stressing over gaining weight or fearing you would lose all the muscle mass you had strenuously gained over time in this lockdown? Well, Warner has got you covered on that aspect as well. Introducing ‘Jugaad Workout’, where all you’ll need are people whom you can lift. If you don’t have weights at your place, we suggest you give this technique a shot if you believe you have the expertise.

 

3. CANDICE TRICKS DAVID

Like most TikTok superstars, Warner proved that even though people are full of creativity and have an eye for great content, they still need to work more on their alertness. Here David gets tricked by his wife Candice and it looks like this time he didn’t have his guard on. Got to hurt, right?

 

4. GRANDMA JOINS THE PARTY

When the ‘Banana Drop’ challenge went viral, Warner didn’t hesitate for a single minute before jumping on the bandwagon and taking it up a notch. Here we also saw a special appearance from David Warner’s mother which turned the adorable level of the video to a new high. Did you check one of Warner’s daughters having to use her hands to make the sunglass drop? This video is pure gold.

 

5. SHEILA KI JAWANI FT. DAVID WARNER

If someone told us before the lockdown that we will get to witness Warner grooving to the popular Bollywood item number ‘Sheila Ki Jawani’, we would have shooed them away. But the Australian seems to love Indian songs and also had some great moves to show off alongside his daughter, Indi. We are sure he would have looked fantastic beside Katrina Kaif in the original song as well!

 

6. PARENTHOOD CAN BE TRICKY

This is arguably the cutest though not the most entertaining of Warner’s TikTok videos. Here, we saw his two daughters trying to be articulate about their needs, but he looked as if he would want to be anywhere in the world except there. A proper representation of what parents face when their children are growing up.

7. SWAG SE SOLO CHALLENGE

No doubt Warner was trying to send the right message here in his own style but even though he was smiling, he looked uncomfortable and the moves weren’t great either. Through his multiple dance videos on both South Indian and Hindi songs, we are aware of the real potential of the dancer in David Warner, but this one doesn’t make the cut.

8. A ‘LIKE MY VIDEO’ TUTORIAL

A quirky attempt where Warner tried to create an illusion but was found out immediately. Not exactly up to the entertainment level as his other videos are, this failed to leave a smile on the faces of his fans. It seems like just like his batting, we expect nothing less than blockbusters on TikTok from the man.

 

9. CAN’T PULL OFF MOVES LIKE HRITHIK

In the majority of his videos, Warner steals the show and you can’t take your eyes off him. In this one though, he was nowhere to be found. The guy on the right was flawless with his moves, something that Warner definitely couldn’t match up to. Though we appreciate Warner’s shoutout to this talented man on his platform, he himself wasn’t good enough.

Way too hard this but I love the moves

 

10. THE STUPID CHAIR OR WARNER?

To be honest, this type of editing technique has been overused in social media. Though it may have incited laughter in his daughters, the fans didn’t find it funny nor entertaining when compared to his other videos. This is definitely one of his not-so-good attempts and we believe David Warner can do much better.
