Cricket star David Warner ‘foolish’ and ‘reckless’ when drink driving, says lawyer

• Australian batter had three glasses of wine before being pulled over

• Warner expects to be punished but will ask for leniency

One of Australia’s greatest batters was both foolish and reckless when he drove after sharing a few glasses of wine with friends on Easter Sunday, his lawyer says.

David Warner returned a positive result for alcohol after he stopped short of a roadside test in Sydney’s east on 5 April, police said.
