Yet. He said: "

Well Warney hasn't really set the world on fire in Bangladesh yet he has been his usual tight good self. After a sore shoulder in the first test he has actually bowled quite well taking 6 wickets at 31. But its the batting which has let him down. After Jason Gilispie's efforts yesterday, he must be spewin. Still well done Dizzy, stick it up em, the selectors that is.

The Australians were given their second cricket lesson inside 12 months by the lowly Bangladeshes today on a flat lifeless pitch. Finishing day 1 on 5 for 355, they not only scored their highest days test score but also blunted the best the Aussies had to offer including Shane Warne. Warne was smashed going for over 5.5 in his 20 overs finishing with 0 for 112. Hopefully the Aussies best is yet

As the Aussies arrived in Bangladesh today to the cheers of locals wanting to see the world champs, Shae Warne was contemplating his first test against the hosts.In fact an interesting statistic is that Shane Warne has only played one test against both Zimbabwe and Bangladesh for 6 wickets out of his total of 674.

Test cricket's spin wizard Shane Warne says the Australian side threw out the bait to see what South African cricket captain Graeme Smith would do - and he swallowed it hook, line and sinker!Referring to the war of words between the two of them in the media, Warne likened it to catching fish: "It's like when you want to catch a big fish. You throw out the bait and wait. We did not have to wait

Australia's greatest living sportsman battles to explain his maddeningly self-destructive behaviour and why he's put his two greatest passions - cricket and family - in so much peril. Read the Shane Warne interview he recently gave to Jana Wendt for The Bulletin.

As the dark encroached, and Mark Boucher led a brave rearguard action, hope flickered that South Africa could somehow survive; always an unlikely prospect, however, when the opposition count Shane Warne amongst their number. Read on for this entertaining article from IAfrica.com.

Another series, another whitewash, and this time in South Africa as the hosts suffered their first clean sweep loss for over 100 years. As for Warney seaming pitches didn't suit him but he still managed 15 victims at 27.33. Didn't have much impact in the first Test with three wickets, but bowled Australia to the series win at Durban with 2 for 80 and 6 for 86, and caused more problems in the

Warney finished the first day of the 3rd test with 1/49 taking his series tally to 11 and total wicket haul to 670. We will probably have to wait till the Ashes for the 700 mark to be broken, and then the flood gates will open.

Shane Warne once again weaved his magic under dark clouds of the African sky as he for the 35th time took a 5 wicket haul finishing with 6/86, as Australia dominated again to lead 2-0 in the best of 3 tests against South Africia in Durban.

Shane Warne became the first bowler to take 600 Test wickets when he had Marcus Trescothick caught behind on the first day of the third Test at Old Trafford. He reached the landmark in his 126th Test when, in his fifth over, Trescothick attempted a sweep and was caught behind off the back of the bat by Adam Gilchrist. Cricinfo have provided a few good articles to celebrate the occasion including

Shane Warne continued to mesmorize England today, as he had with The Strauss Ball last night. Finishing with 6/46 off 23.1 overs, including 2 6's in one over from Pieterson, Warne now has 599 test wickets and will have to wait a few more days to bring up the magical 600. The match is very evenly poised and Australia will have to bat at their best if they are to get the 282 runs required to win

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

Coming in at 6 for 262 with your side in a little trouble still 140 plus runs behind, most people would be a little cautious with the bat and value their wicket. Not Shane Warne, out embarrasingly trying to hit Giles out of the park and clean bowled, 2 feet down the crease for 8. What was the man thinking?

Pitch looks tailor-made for McGrath, was the way that Shane Warne spoke of Edgbaston less than 24 hours before the McGrath incident in his TimesOnline column Speaking of his own preparation he had this to say: As far as my bowling goes, I’m in good shape after working with Terry Jenner before Lord’s. The shape, drift and spin were there. I’ve been fiddling with a few different grips and I even

Well what a day, Engalnd have finally decided that attack is the key, and no doubt the late news of champion Glenn McGrath being a late withdrawal just gave them the confidence booster they needed.
