Warne and 100 wickets in England

Shane Warne created Test cricket history again a few moments ago when he ripped the ball past Andrew Strauss who couldn't believe what had happened. Like The Gatting Ball which announced him as a bowler in England with his first wicket in that country back in 1993, The Strauss Ball became Shane Warne's 100th Test victim in England, and subsequently he is the first player ever to have taken 100 test wickets in a country other than his own. The magician lives on, and The Strauss Ball also becomes victim 594. Will 600 come up tomorrow?

Postscript, Cricinfo have just put out a good article on Warney's 100th wicket in England.
