Marnus Labuchagne serves David Warner a cup of coffee made from beans he brought from Australia
Australia may have tasted defeat in the first Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2023 in Nagpur, but this has not deterred the Australian players.
Marnus Labuschagne pours his compatriot David Warner a cup of coffee from special coffee beans that were transported to the East India All the way from Australia.
Marnus loves his coffee and had earlier shared pictures of his coffee bags that he carried to India. Warner had earlier pulled up on Marnus and asked if he was paying any import duty on ‘a few kilograms’ of coffee bags that he had taken to India.
The Australian opener was treated to Marnus’ ‘special’ coffee as Warner shared a video on his Instagram handle preparing his coffee with Marnus as both the cricketers shared a light moment after their ordeal in Nagpur.
In the three-minute-long video, Marnus brews two cups of coffee with his special coffee bag, which he brought from Australia. He had brought his own special coffee machine, which Warner said had cricket balls stitched from the edge.
While Marnus was making coffee, Warner also remembered Steve Smith and the pair can be heard joking about it in the clip.
Later, Labuschagne spills some milk while pouring it into his teammates’ cups and can be seen joking about it, however, Warner applauds the ‘perfect’ cup of coffee made by his compatriot.
Watch:
When Marnus Labuschagne shared pictures of the coffee bag he packed for the tour of India for the first time, Dinesh Karthik replied by reminding him of India’s coffee heritage.
You get great coffee in India too mate 😊- DK (@DineshKarthik) January 30, 2023

Karthik had replied to Marnus, “You get great coffee in India too,” and Warner later also pulled his teammate’s leg, commenting, “Are you paying any import duty for this?? “
Meanwhile, both Australian batsmen struggled to make a mark with the bat in the first Test, with Marnus being his team’s leading run-scorer with 49 as Pat Cummins’ men could manage only 177 in their first innings. Well, Warner was successful. Make only one run.
Labuschagne struggled in the second innings on Day 3, scoring only 17 runs, while David Warner added 10 runs before being dismissed by Ravichandran Ashwin.
