Warne widely considered one of the greatest bowlers in cricket history, was named one of the Wisden Cricketers of the Year in the 1994 Wisden Cricketers’ Almanack. He was the Wisden Leading Cricketer in the World in 1997 and 2004. In 2000, he was selected by a panel of cricket experts as one of the five Wisden Cricketers of the Century, the only specialist bowler selected in the quintet, and the only one still playing at the time.

He died of a heart attack after four friends tried for 20 minutes to resuscitate him in Koh Samui villa on a ‘boys’ holiday’ in Thailand. He was 52.
