David’s colleague Josh Hazlewood said before the Afghanistan and Bangladesh match that the result of this particular match would determine the association of David with the team.

Josh stated nothing had been said yet. They will wait until after the AFG vs BAN game. However, it has been amazing to play with David. They will sincerely miss his presence on and off the field as a teammate.

Another Aussie cricket Travis Head stated it would be disappointing for David’s career to end. He passed this statement at a press conference before Australia’s World Cup elimination from the tournament.

Travis said the team would be upset if the career of David ends like that. His contributions to Australian cricket at the top of the order in all formats have received widespread attention.
