Warner sparked an extensive search for his most prized cricket possession on the eve of his final Test, when he claimed his backpack had been stolen.
Inside the backpack were his two baggy greens, including the one he has worn for the vast majority of his 112-Test career.
Warner initially suggested it was likely to have been taken by someone in transit, with Prime Minister Anthony Albanese among those urging for the caps to be returned.
That plea came to fruition on Friday morning with Warner taking to social media to announce it had been found.
"It's a load off my shoulders going into the last couple of days," Warner said.
"Any cricketer knows how special their cap is and I'll cherish this for the rest of my life.
"I'm very grateful to all those involved in locating it, the Qantas team, the freight company, the hotel and our own team management.
"I really appreciate it so thank you all."
The opener had been forced to field with a replacement baggy green during the first innings of the Test, making 34 before edging Salman Agha to slip.
Warner and Cricket Australia are still unsure of the movements of the backpack before it resurfaced at the team hotel.
That comes despite extensive searches and the review of CCTV footage at multiple locations.
"It's a huge relief David's cap has been located and a big thank you to everyone who was involved in the search," Cricket Australia CEO Nick Hockley said.Â
"We really appreciate it."
