They were 2-136 when Warner went.
So , 8 for 43.
To be fair, pretty tough conditions to bat under. The ball was bobbling all over the place, and at speed. In fact, early on it was almost moving too much - the ball missed the outside edge of Warner's bat by big margins (and not because he didn't offer a shot). Once the movement was not so pronounced, it was more dangerous.
If we can get the same sort of conditions on Day 2, Cummins, Pattinson and Hazlewood will be a real handful - 179 might look like a good score, because their batting is hardly top-shelf either.
