I DON'T HAVE A DRINKING PROBLEM Instead he will be put on a special intensive training program. He admitted he was drinking the night of the incident and was "aggressive" at the bar but insists he does not have a problem with alcohol. WARNER'S TEST HOPES FADE Yesterday, former England captain Michael Vaughan said Warner must have a "screw loose" for punching Root a month out from an Ashes series. Vaughan said Warner's unprovoked attack on Root had "tarnished the whole Australia cricket team" by ensuring the storm of uncertainty surrounding their Ashes prospects turned into a tornado. Witnesses described how the Australian and English players arrived at the Walkabout Aussie-themed pub about 1.30am and were ushered together to a VIP area close to the bar. News Limited learned the tab from the night at the Walkabout that Warner agreed to pay was under 50 pounds (AUD$82) and was for an assortment of beers. However, a worker behind the bar told the UK Telegraph yesterday Warner had been drinking Jägerbombs (a mix of Jagermeister and Red Bull) as well as vodka mixed with the same energy drink. Aussie captain George Bailey backed Warner yesterday denying he has a short fuse. The England and Wales Cricket Board confirmed the attack.
