Answer 2

The First ball that he bowled at the Ashes Series to Mike Gatting and that ball was the "ball of the century" that make him the one of the graetest cricketer of all time and he was also name in the five Cricketer of cricket History
And the record of the taking the higest wicket in test cricket that make Shane Warne the greatest cricketer of all times

Answer 3

Warney is THE all-time greatest bowler.
Not only his wickets tell so but the way he has got them tell so too. He has got wickets on all kinds of tracks - be it aussie, windies or south african tracks. Murali has got 350 out of his 650 on sri lankan pitches and we all noe that they are a spinner's paradise. Besides Warney has been bowling for a side with a history of greta pacemen and even during his career there were great pacemen playing for australia who used to get early 2 to 3 wkts thus leaving a maximum of 7-8 wkts for warney and even when he bowled his spell the pacemen like McGrath, Lee, Gillespie, McDermott etc. took those 1-2 wkts out of the remaining whereas Murali got a shot at the whole 10 wkts( even though Vaas was there).
Thats why warne hasnt taken 9 wkts in an innings unlike Murali and his Wicket tally per match is low as compared to Murali.

There used to be a program " Greats of Cricket" in which they showed and explained about the careers of top 50 cricketers ever to play the game of cricket and warne was at no. 4 and Murali at no. 41 and McGrath at 42. That was the highest rank for a bowler as he surpassed Lillee at No.5. Those who were ahead of him were Richards, Sobers and Bradman all of whom were batting greats( though Sir Garfield Sobers was a batting all-rounder).
Besides it was Warne who bowled the Delivery of the cantury when he got Gatting bowled by a "jaffe".
He is among only 3 players in the history to have bagged Man of the Match awards in the Semi-final and final of the same world cup and for the records he achieved that feat in the 1999 wc played in ENGLANd where pitches arent exactly a Spinner's paradise like as in sri lanka.
This clearly shows that there is nobody like nor there was any nor there will be many.
The whole of the cricket world would miss the controversial yet a miraculous bowler in Shane Keith Warne.
And i get quite emotional on saying this that even i will miss u Warney.

Answer 4

Not only his 700+ wickets makes Shane Warne as the best bowler of all the time, but the way he owned it is remarkable.

He was bowling throught his career along with an outstanding Australian bowling side. Since they have many dependable & succesful bowlers the wickets will get divide and also he is getting comparatively less overs to bowl. (But see for SLanka they are depending Murali only & he usually bowls 70-75 overs where Warne is getting a chance of hardly 25 overs in a test inning)
In this limit he has definitely done a splendid job & he will be definitely the best bowler eventhough his record may be crossed by someone else.

Answer 5

Shane Warne has an ability to turn the ball on any kind of pitch. He has an eagles eye to spot the minor flaws of the batsman & cash on to it. His fingers are agile like a panther on the move & he appricates the skills of batsman like Lara, Tedulkar or anyone on that perticular day he gets beaten.He is 37 & the age does not show on the feild. No one can say when Shane was at the peak during his career because always stayed there.

Answer 6

Bowling, batting, or, fielding, he gave his all to whatever he was doing on the field. He may have made the news for his off-field escapades, but he was never pointed out as a man possessing a suspect action. The partnerships he created - with McGrath, another formidable bowler, with keepers like Healy and Gilchrist, and slip-catchers like Mark Taylor and Waugh - were simply amazing. Everytime Australia was down, the captains knew that Warne would deliver very formidable answers. Now, can he create a few more like him? That would make him the absolute greatest!

Answer 7

SMS's are designed to deliver short messages to the different recipient. what's sent in that message is beside the point What Shane Warne does in his very own existence is definitely none of yours, mine or every person elses business enterprise. Warne has made some incorrect judgements in his existence, in basic terms like very nearly anybody in the worldwide has such because of the fact the participant you worship who has been had tax evasion rates, ball tampering rates and have been given caught mendacity below oath in courtroom that are all unlawful. None of those issues your hero would be pleased with doing, in basic terms comparable to Shane Warne does no longer be pleased with a number of the ideas like taking the banned pill his mom gave him. That determination had fools like many on right here doubt his performances regardless of the actuality he had performed extra beneficial than a decade with no need been caught with a banned drug in his gadget and in those years having a extra constructive checklist than maximum have in the historic previous of cricket. particularly different than for the call Shane Warne, what has this question have been given to do with cricket? in basic terms utilising a gamers call does not advise that's cricket appropriate. Edit: In respond on your extra beneficial questions directed at me, the respond is trouble-free. Shane Warne replaced right into a cricketer and the only place in a newspaper that one would examine any tale approximately Shane Warne would be if it replaced into in the activities section or the front internet site of the paper. Sachin Tendulkar's rates for Tax Evasion have been suggested in the activities portion of the newspapers. Does that advise that speaking approximately Sachin Tendulkar's lack of ability to place up a suitable tax return is on the topic of ways he bats on a cricket container? Why else would or no longer it particularly is suggested in the activities section whilst taxes relate to finance particularly than cricket? Shane Warne replaced into stood down from the vice captaincy because of the fact someone in the area of vice captain is meant to set a stable occasion the two on an off the sector. He set lots of stable examples on the sector, yet his off container antics that have been displayed in the media weren't constantly what one would go without of the vice captain of the quantity one cricket factor in the worldwide.

Answer 8

he is the greatest bowler ever cricket has produced.he spins the ball as great as even snake cannot take tht much sharp turns. his leg spinner which turns into a left hander and cleans the leg wicket of him is the mode which he separated by all other spinners,, mind u he also reached to 700 wickets in test cricket in same way

Answer 9

His skill and determination. He is able to bowl well on any kind of wicket whether receptive to spin or not. He also varies his deliveries. Once his reputation started to grow he seemed to have a psychological advantage over the batsmen. In addition he is a winner and has been lucky to play in some exceptional Australian sides with the same attitude.

Answer 10

In my views he is the best player for his country after Sir Don Bradman. If Sir Bradman is great lover of batting than warne shows his love for bowling because he plays for his country not for himself his 1000 wickets in both form of the games prove this. 700! and 300! wickets makes him not only the best bowler but also the best player of the world beside this he also makes 99 in his test carreer which shows that he is not only serve his country with bowl only but with bat also. This proves that how great he is and this is the symtoms of great cricketers. He is the idol for yong spin generations.HE IS GREAT!
