The case of David Warner’s missing baggy green caps may have been the result of a teammate prank that got out of hand.
After a two-day search – which involved Qantas, a freight company, hotel staff, team management and calls from Prime Minister Anthony Albanese for the swift return of the baggy greens – a sour note to the decorated opener’s Test farewell at the SCG has been avoided.
Warner announced on Friday morning to more than 10 million Instagram followers that he’d been reunited with both of his missing baggy green caps after they were discovered at the Australian team hotel in Sydney by a staff member.
The caps were not returned by a member of the public.
Fears that the baggy greens had been misplaced or stolen in transit from Melbourne, where Australia won the second Test of the series against Pakistan, to Sydney turned out to be wrong.
Cricket Australia’s statement on Friday morning was light on detail but confirmed the news they had been found.
