Committed to play 2023 WC, will quit if team management says it's time: Warner after match-winning double ton against SA

Melbourne [Australia], December 29 (ANI): After hitting a match-winning double hundred in his 100th Test against South Africa, veteran Australian opener David Warner said that his knock is right up there with his best ones and said that he is committed to play in ICC Cricket World Cup next year in India, though he will quit if team management decides to move on from him.
David Warner, Cameron Green and Nathan Lyon were the stars for an all-round Australia, helping their side crush a helpless South Africa side by an innings and 182 runs in the second Test of the three-match series at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) on Thursday.
"Phenomenal achievement from the boys to get the job done. We saw some crazy stuff from Green and Starc, also a fantastic hundred by Carey. 100th Test in front of a packed MCG, what a match it turned out to be. The knock will be right up there for me. I always knew I had it in me to perform on the big stage," said Warner in a post-match presentation on his and his team's performance.
"I'm committed to playing next year's World Cup (50-over tournament in India), I will keep myself fit, try and keep scoring, but if they do (the team management) tap me on the back and say it's time, I am ready (to quit)," added the opener on his future.
With this, Australia has won the series 2-0. It is their first series win against Proteas at home since 2005/06.
Trailing Australia by 386 runs, Proteas were bundled out for just 204 runs in their second innings. Temba Bavuma (65) and Kyle Verreynne (33) were the only ones that could offer some notable resistance with the bat.
Lyon was the pick of the bowlers, taking 3/58. Boland took two wickets while Cummins, Starc and Smith took one wicket each.
