    The accuracy. The drift. The turn and bounce. It was masterful.

    And the way he set guys up. He seriously might be the best cricketer of my generation.

    Saw him get his 300th v South Africa at the SCG. That's really my only big warny live story

      @mariner4life Absolute legend who put fear into the hearts of many NZ cricket fans. You just knew he was going to break the comeback partnership and start a collapse.

      Saw him at a petrol station in Melbourne in 2004. Assumed he was buying pre-paid SIM cards. 😉

        It’s actually very hard to argue that much as I’d like to…..

        Who else is there ? Tendulkar ? Lara ? ( my personal favourite ) Kallis ? Murali ?

        Pace bowlers like Ambrose and McGrath were outstanding but we’ve seem guys like that before…..Warne was outstanding in his uniqueness

          His family has been offered a state funeral by the Victorian Government.

              @donsteppa probably would have always happened. Sadly about 30 years too soon

                If anyone has access to Amazon Prime, there is a recent documentary about Shane Warne hosted on there. I watched it a couple weeks ago so I was pretty shocked hearing the news this morning. RIP Warney.

                  Rule of threes. Thankfully I was a shit cricketer so that rules me out.

                  He made spin cool again in Oz. Just look at some of these deliveries:

                          To be fair, Warnie shagged about 20% of the women in Accrington.

                            Shane Warne was watching cricket, about to go to dinner before 20 minutes of CPR

                            Harry Morrow left a can of VB, a meat pie and a packet of cigarettes at Warne’s feet on Saturday, in memory of the man he said “was Australian cricket”.

                                          The one thing in common is the age. Both men passed away far too soon. Both were huge in stature in their respective fields too
