The fact that Warne still rated him the best Kiwi batsman he bowled to .....

shit memory from you Warnie

Lot what the fuck? Trying to play reverse mental games against a bogan who doesn't give a fuck what you think. Yeah, that'll work.

@donsteppa I remember reading an article in one of the UK papers ahead of that first Ashes series. In it Crowe warned England that Warne was something special and to be feared.

The general tone of the article was very condescending, implying NZ might have struggled but facing England would be an entirely different proposition

BOOMFAH!

Yep. That sounds like our press.

Shane Warne died as he lived, leaving a hurricane of emotions and memories | Jonathan Liew

He achieved greatness but never pretended to be perfect, and perhaps we all loved him a little bit more because of that

@dogmeat

a cheeky six over the infield

Tough to get any other kind of six really.

@bones a cheeky little run-2-and-get-4-overthrows?

[voodoo]

@scribe quick single and the overthrow hits a fielders disgarded powerade bottle?

A long read but well worth it for the anecdotes from three Kiwi cricketers.

Shane Warne if in one of my gaps from NZ/ Aussie history due to being in the States. Never saw him bowl. From what I am reading a street smart person and probably I high IQ. Like most I think I would like to meet him. RIP.
