Warner's loose talk fills buildup to 3rd test
Warner was fined 15 percent of his match fee by the ICC.
Cape Town: Both captains claimed they weren't going to talk about David Warner; both went on to dedicate a fair bit of time to talking about him.
"He's becoming a little bit of a rent-a-quote," South Africa's Graeme Smith offered. "He's a tough bugger, there's no doubt about it, and he'll love the challenge he faces when he walks out onto that ground," was Michael Clarke's assessment of his Australia teammate.
Warner grabbed the headlines in the lead-up to the third and decisive test at Newlands starting on Saturday when he accused South Africa of underhand ball-management tactics during its 231-run win in the second test.
He was fined 15 percent of his match fee by the International Cricket Council.
