Warner recorded a blood alcohol reading of 0.104, more than twice the legal limit, after being stopped by police and undergoing a secondary breath test. His lawyer, Bobby Hill, confirmed the guilty plea, stating Warner accepted responsibility for his 'reckless' and 'foolish decision' to drive after consuming three glasses of wine. The admission of guilt has placed Warner's captaincy of the Sydney Thunder Big Bash League team in doubt, particularly as Cricket NSW and the team are involved in an anti-drink-driving campaign. Warner, who retired from international cricket in 2024, faces potential penalties including a minimum six-month driving ban, a fine of up to A$2,200, and a possible prison term of up to nine months, with his sentence to be handed down on 18 August.
