In 1982, I recall riding the train to the MCG and sitting in the front row of the huge Southern stand, crossing our fingers that Allan Border and Jeff Thomson would get the runs needed to beat England“. Jason Said.

Who’d have guessed he’d make such an influence at the stadium in the years to come, with that same stand being renamed in his honour? An amazing person with an amazing life.

RIP Shane Warne
RIP Shane Warne.

Warne was regarded as one of the greatest cricketers of all time. When he first came to prominence in the early 1990s, he almost single-handedly revolutionized leg-spin bowling, and by the time he retired from international cricket in 2007, he had been the first bowler to reach 700 Test wickets.

Shane Warne’s Daughter Expresses her love for her father:

Dad, I already miss you very terribly.” In what I didn’t realize were my final moments with you, I wish I could have hugged you tighter. And your last breaths were only a matter of seconds away. I wish I could have reassured you that everything will be fine and held your hand. Summer wrote, “You are the best Dad anyone could possibly ask for.”

Brooke and Jackson, Summer’s siblings, also released heartfelt tributes to their father’s passing. “I’ll always treasure our last moments together, laughing and joking around with each other.” We were overjoyed. We were so similar in so many ways, and I used to joke about how much it irritated me that I had your genes!!” she added.
