The left-handed batsman was struck in the second innings of the Brisbane
Test, even as the hosts won the match by four wickets to take a 2-0
lead in the four-match series.
"It was a bit sore when it hit the splice or the toe of the bat, but that's to be expected. I feel good and I'm ready to go," Warner said.
"I tried to have a dip at the spinners to see if I could actually hit the ball as hard as I can. It did feel real sore. But for me it's about trying to hold out that pain and grind it out. I will bear it and get out there on Boxing Day."
Rookie Joe Burns has been named in the Australian squad for this third Test, and he will take Mitchell Marsh's place in the playing XI.
