Shane Warne

Shane Warne’s 708 Test wickets rank second only to Muttiah Muralitharan, but his 1993 Ball of the Century to Mike Gatting remains the most iconic delivery ever bowled. He averaged 25.41 with the ball across 145 Tests, a strike rate of 57.4 that is faster than the average spin bowler’s. Warne’s 37 five-wicket hauls are the most by any spinner, 10 more than #2 Sachin Tendulkar’s wicket tally in Tests. His charisma and cunning redefined leg-spin, making him a showman who dominated the world stage.
