"As a kid growing up, he was a massive idol of mine. "Unbelievable. I am shocked to the core. He inspired multiple generations of players wanting to be Shane Warne. That's the legacy he's going to leave." We have lost one of the greatest sportsmen of all time!" "I got to know him off the field as well. "He was a pretty life-loving person. "Will miss you Warnie. There was never a dull moment with you around, on or off the field. "He was very kind and he was such a character that was, I think, what Australians loved about him as well. Life is so unpredictable and fickle, we need to be grateful for all the moments we're alive. There seemed to be never a dull moment." He was the ultimate competitor. They were two icons of the game who made massive impacts and certainly their mark has been left."
Neither he nor his group of loyal friends could have known that the less than a day he spent at Samujana Villas in Koh Samui, would be his last.
He sat in the conference room on the top level of Bophut police station, a short drive from the resort, as Warne’s friends told police about the lead-up to his death.

The group had planned to convene for a drink about 5pm. For the former cricket great, this was to be the start of a three-month sabbatical after a busy summer in Australia commentating on the cricket.

For it was the dinner break on the first evening of the 2012 World Series of Poker main event, and Warne had just snuck out through the hotel kitchens after ...
Not many megastars are quite so devoid of pretension as Warne remained to the end - even allowing for a hectic, jet-set lifestyle that only a man who burned at his wattage could have kept up with. And overall, he rarely got closer to a payout than in 2009, when his deep run in the tournament caused him to turn up a week late for his hugely hyped Sky Sports debut in that summer's Ashes. In 2018, I was privileged enough to witness the truth of Warne in its full majesty. That innate willingness to graft may have been at odds with Warne's showman persona, but it was a key part of the deceptive image that he was able to present throughout an astonishing 15-year career.

Loyal friend," he tweeted. "He went in there ... and then realised something was wrong. "Genius player. "It was a bit all or nothing. "He obviously smoked most of his life. "To us, he was the greatest - but to his family, he was so much more."
