Shane Warne
Book for an event
Born 13 September 1969, Shane Warne is widely regarded as one of the finest bowlers in the history of the game. Warne played his first Test match in 1992, and took over 1000 international wickets (in Tests and One-Day Internationals). A useful lower-order batsman, Warne also scored over 3000 Test runs. He played domestic cricket for his home state of Victoria, and English domestic cricket for Hampshire. In 2008 he captained the Rajasthan Royals to victory in the IPL. He officially retired from all formats in 2013 and began commentating for Foxtel. He died tragically and suddenly of a heart attack in March 2022.
