List of batters Shane Warne dismissed most times in Test history
Warne had 708 Test wickets to his name.
The entire cricketing world along with fans had chills down the spine after the news of Shane Warne’s untimely demise broke on the internet. People found it hard to believe that the spin wizard has left so soon due to a ‘suspected’ heart attack in Thailand, as per the statements released by his official team.
It is known for all that Warne had an absolutely illustrious career where he remained a nightmare for batters during his prime days. Having scalped 708 Test wickets, he remained an all-time great and certainly troubled a few batters more than the others in his fruitful career. Talking of the same, he dismissed Alec Stewart of England 14 times in Test cricket followed by Nasser Hussain, 11 times.

The next one in this list is Ashwell Price of South Africa whom the leg spinner dismissed 11 times, the same as that of Hussain. Prince is being followed by Mike Atherton who was trapped by Warne 10 times in his Test career. In the same line, the Australian legends trapped Graham Thorpe, Mark Boucher, Steve Harmison, and Ashley Giles nine times each in the Test history.
As soon as Warne passed away, the cricket fraternity came in numbers to pay tribute to the legend, and the greatest skipper of his nation, Ricky Ponting also came in to offer his prayers.
“Hard to put this into words. I first met him when I was 15 at the Academy. He gave me my nickname. We were teammates for more than a decade, riding all the highs and lows together. Through it all, he was someone you could always count on, someone who loved his family.”
“Someone who would be there for you when you needed him and always put his mates first. The greatest bowler I ever played with or against. RIP King. My thoughts are with Keith, Bridgette, Jason, Brooke, Jackson, and Summer,” tweeted Ricky Ponting.
