Former Australia batter David Warner has been charged with drink-driving in Sydney. <\/b><\/p>\n
New South Wales Police confirmed a 39-year-old man was arrested on Sunday after returning a positive result following a random breath test in Maroubra in east Sydney. <\/p>\n
Warner recorded a second positive test at a police station, which was reported at more than twice the legal blood alcohol concentration limit permitted in New South Wales.<\/p>\n
“A van was seen to allegedly stop short of the testing site and park,” NSW Police said in a statement.<\/p>\n
“Officers attached to Traffic and Highway Patrol Command approached the vehicle and subjected the driver \u2013 a 39-year-old man \u2013 to roadside testing which returned a positive result.<\/p>\n
“He was arrested and taken to Maroubra Police Station where a second test allegedly returned a reading of 0.104.”<\/p>\n
Warner has been charged with a mid-range prescribed concentration of alcohol, which applies to drivers in New South Wales with a blood alcohol concentration between 0.08 and 0.149.<\/p>\n
He will appear in court on 7 May.<\/p>\n
Warner, who retired from international cricket in 2024, is currently captain of Pakistan Super League side Karachi Kings. <\/p>\n
Their next match is against Peshawar Zalmi on 9 April. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
