Australia Cricket legend Shane Warne dies of suspected heart attack
Australian spin legend Shane Warne has passed away of a suspected attack in Thailand. He was 52.
“Shane was found unresponsive in his villa and despite the best efforts of medical staff, he could not be revived,” Warne’s management confirmed in a statement to Australian media outlet Fox Sports.
“The family requests privacy at this time and will provide further details in due course,” the statement added.
Warne is arguably the best leg-spinner ever, with a tally of 708 Test match wickets. He also took 293 One-Day International wickets and made more than 300 appearances for Australia across all formats.
Warne has also bagged more Ashes wickets than any other bowler in history.
