It's pretty much a dream come true: David Warner

Warner talked about the match and his retirement in the post-match interview and said that securing a 3-0 series win against Pakistan is a dream come true for the Australian cricket team. Over the past 18 months, the Kangaroos triumphed in the World Test Championship, drew the Ashes series, and clinched the World Cup. The retiring player expressed gratitude for the overwhelming support from the home crowd throughout his decade-long career, making the achievement even more special.

“It's pretty much a dream come true. You win 3-0 and cap off what's been a great 18 months to 2 years for the Australian cricket team. World Test Championship win, Ashes series draw and then the World Cup. To come here and finish 3-0 is an outstanding achievement. I'm proud to be with a bunch of great cricketers here. These guys, they work their backsides off, the engine room - the three big quicks plus Mitchell Marsh - they work tirelessly in the nets and in the gym. 

Credit to them, the physios, the staff behind that ... is outstanding. You look at them, they are amazing, I don't have to face them ever again in the nets, which I don't do anyway, so that helps. (Today morning) Just a casual walk up to the local cafe, get a coffee with a young one, and then I just got into the car. I felt happy and really proud. To come here in front of your home crowd with the support they've shown me and Australian cricket over the last decade of my career, I can't thank them enough. Without you guys, we aren't able to do what we do. It's really much appreciated.” Warner was quoted as saying by Cricbuzz.
