‘I absolutely loved the light show’ - David Warner reacts to Glenn Maxwell talking down on mid innings light show

Australian all-rounder Glenn Maxwell recently caught all the headlines after he came forward to criticise the mid-inning light show in various stadiums at the ongoing ODI World Cup 2023. Maxwell went viral after he recently said that the light show between innings is the dumbest idea for cricketers, as it takes quite a while for their eyes to adjust back.

Seeing his comments, Australian opener David Warner took to Twitter to disagree with the all-rounder’s statements. Stating that he absolutely loves the light show, the 36-year-old opined that the players would not be able to do anything without the fans. 

“I absolutely loved the light show, what an atmosphere. It’s all about the fans. Without you all we won’t be able to do what we love,” Warner tweeted.
