Shane Warne's autobiography 'No Spin' is in a lot of discussion these days. In it he wrote that both Sachin Tendulkar and Brian Lara are the best batsmen of my time. On the last day of the Test series, if I had picked any player to score a century, it would have been Brian Lara, but if there is a time when life has come to life, I will send Sachin Tendulkar to bat. On the death of Shane Warne, Sachin Tendulkar said that shocked, surprised and saddened, Warney will miss you. Be it on the field or off it, whenever you were around, there was never a boring moment.
Shane Warne had a close association with Rajasthan Royals. Rajasthan Royals got their first title in IPL under Warne's captaincy. After that he was also the mentor of the team. The ball that Warne bowled to England's Mike Gatting during the 1993 Ashes is said to be the best ball in cricket history. This ball, taking a turn at almost 90 degrees, had left the batsman in a quandary.
