In a grim news that is coming our way, Australia legend Shane Warne has passed away at the age of 52. Warner is suspected to have died of a heart attack. The veteran was found dead in his villa. He was rushed to the hospital after being found unconscious in his room but his life could not be saved.
“Shane was found unresponsive in his villa and despite the best efforts of medical staff, he could not be revived,” the statement reads. “The family requests privacy at this time and will provide further details in due course.
Warne was one of the greatest spinners of all time. He was one of the most loved cricketers as well. He is the second highest wickettaker in the history of Test cricket and had 708 wickets to his name, only behind Muttiah Muralitharan. He gave nightmares to the best batters of his era.
Here’s how cricketing fraternity reacted to Warne’s shocking demise:

Heartbroken about @ShaneWarne’s news. Rest in peace legend. I used to keep watching him take wickets on TV. So when I started proper cricket, I decided to become a legspinner. Have no words to express my sorrow. Prayers for the departed and family. pic.twitter.com/NIk7KDW85d
