A sporting legend

NEVER HEARD OF HIM CONDOLANCES TO FAMILY

Thats ok my friend - he played International Cricket for Australia and widely regarded as the greatest spin bowler of all time.
He is also lesser known for his previous relationship with Elizabeth Hurley (Austin Powers Film).

What an absolute legend of the game. RIP Warney.

Always enjoyed watching him and listening to him commentate, actually not true, I didn't 'enjoy' watching him repeatedly rip through Englands batting, but I appreciated it for sure.

Grant him eternal peace, Lord.
