The great Shane Warne retired from test cricket today maybe a few matches to late for the english supporters.He will go down as one of the game's greats, for the american's on this sight he would be up there with the alltime great baseball pitchers, for sporting talent.Even though he was known for his off field misdemenor's  he said he was not perfect.For a bloke who liked pizza beer (baked beans) and smokes he did pretty well just imagine if he ate all the right foods!!!!Bowled Warnie (and yes we have some more leg spin bowlers coming through to torment the english in 2009)  

Australia loses the worlds greatest spin bowler ever and one of the all time greats, but cricket loses a character and an icon and we all know cricket can ill afford to lose that.

Cant imagine not seeing him there giving the batsmen a serve.

And with his figures dont forget he was off for a year, imagine the stats if he had played that year.

a great player and a great character. it's gonna be difficult for the Aussies to replace him and McGrath. who is also rumoured to be retiring at the end of this series.

Some stats alright...

Takes drugs and blames his Mum...

Gives the "bird" from the stands...

Kisses and propositions teenage girls from his car

Cheats on his wife...

But yeah he was an ok bowler...

Gonna miss ya you larikin!

Yes guys he was a great player hope he takes a few more wickets
