Shane Warne

With my recent thoughts and endeavours not leading to interesting blog posts (even by the low standards of this site) I will merely give you a youtube video of Shane Warne.

Later in his career Warney was ‘just’ an accurate bowler of legbreaks that turned enough to be dangerous who also had a psychological hold over batsmen and umpires. But circa 1994 he was an absolute bamboozler – the flipper especially was unplayable for people that grew up in South Africa, England, West Indies…

This video from 1994 against South Africa is worth watching:

  1. We had some good close catchers in those days.

  2. Yeah, Taylor, M. Waugh and Healy are incredible in this video.

  3. I was in the computer lab supervising a class when I watched this video . The 8 yr old boys around me were most impressed with the flipper ,as was I .
