David Warner may have been rested for India vs Australia T20I series but the swashbuckling opener was excited ahead of the first match in Mohali. Warner shared a picture of Australian skipper Aaron Finch and former India skipper Virat Kohli before the toss.
However, the Australian opener was reminded by fans that Kohli is no longer captain of the Indian team, instead, it is Rohit Sharma who is leading the Men in Blue.
"Who’s winning tonight?? Come on Australia #cricket #Australia #India," wrote Warner on Instagram sharing a pic of Finch shaking hands with Kohli.

Much to Warner's pleasure, his side won the first T20I in Mohali by four wickets, recording this highest-ever successful chase in the shortest format against India.
Even in Warner's absence, Cameron Green shined as an opener, scoring 61 runs from just 30 balls to provide Australia to a steady start as they took the Indian bowlers to the cleaners.
