Late Shane Warne will always be remembered for his incredible contribution to the Australian cricket team. One of the greats of the game, he redefined spin bowling during his career with incredible talent. Back in Australia’s tour of Pakistan 2002-03, Warne wreaked havoc against the hosts.

Trapping 27 batters in six innings of three games, he helped his team to whitewash Pakistan in the three-match competition. In 2004, Australia visited Sri Lanka for a five-match ODI series and three-match Test series. In the longest form of the sport, he again showed his magic, taking 26 wickets in six innings of three matches.

After delivering his best in Sri Lanka, a few months later, he again showcased his bowling skills in the four-match Test series in India. The leggie took 14 wickets in five innings of three matches and helped his team to win a Test series in India after 35 years. The former Aussie legend also clinched 6/125 figures in Chennai Test, which ended in a draw. In 2007, he hung his boots after taking 1001 wickets in 339 matches.
