Publishers Description: Shane Warne was the most glamorous and arguably the best cricketer in the world for more than ten years. He won a generation of fans by showing the fun to be had in bamboozling opponents. Warne loved the limelight, but the limelight also burned him: scandals involving drugs, extra-marital affairs, and taking money from dodgy bookmakers have soured relations with his family and homeland. This fascinating and thorough biography draws on interviews with Warne and many of his teammates and opponents to tell the entire story of his life and career. On the heels of Warne's retirement from Test cricket with a record 706 victims to his name, this unique retrospective looks at cricket's famed enigma, showman, and genius.
