I will sledge India if Warner won’t: Johnson

Outspoken opener David Warner has been on his best behaviour at the World Cup after getting into hot water over a series of spats with the Indian side during the Test series over the New Year. The fiery exchanges continued into the Tri-series and Warner was fined for asking India’s Rohit Sharma to ‘speak English’ during a slanging match in a one-dayer at MCg in January.
“I heard Davy said he wasn’t going to get involved in all that stuff. Someone’s got to do it and I might put my hand up. It’s part of the game and what happened the other day with Shane (Watson) and Wahab (Riaz) was exceptional. I thought it was great entertainment and I think you’re going to see more entertainment in this game,” paceman Johnson told Fox TV on Tuesday.
As well as Warner, Indians Shikhar Dhawan, Ishant Sharma and Virat Kohli were fined for clashes during the Test series.
