Some losses feel personal although you have never met the person. Warnie is one such name!

It’s hard to believe that it’s been 3 years that Warnie has left us. 💔

The void created by his absence can never be filled! There can never be another Shane Warne!

May his magic keep… pic.twitter.com/d5mU0NtrOz

Cannot believe it’s been 3 years since the Great Man Warnie was taken from all us way too soon. Hope you’re having a cold frosty one and a dirty rotten pizza with the Big Man in the Sky! #shanewarne #warnie pic.twitter.com/TwldsG3a2n

Warne was widely considered one of the greatest bowlers in cricket history. He played his first Test match in 1992 and took over 1,000 wickets in Tests and One-Day Internationals over the course of his career. Warne’s 708 Test wickets from 145 tests was the record for the most wickets taken by any bowler in Test cricket until 2007.

Wisden Cricketers’ Almanack recognised Shane’s incredible sporting achievements by naming him as one of its Five Cricketers of the Twentieth Century alongside fellow cricket icons Sir Donald Bradman, Sir Garfield Sobers, Sir Jack Hobbs and Sir Vivian Richards. He was inducted into the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame in 2013.
