Bowled over by the WIZARD

"Test cricket's greatest bowler Shane Warne announced his retirement from international competition Thursday, drawing the curtain on one of the most celebrated careers in the sport's history.
Saying he wanted to go out on top, the 37-year-old Australian leg-spinner with a world record 699 Test wickets revealed the two remaining Ashes Tests against England will be his last international matches. "

Heroes come and heroes go but legends are there to stay.
One such legend of my generation is Shane "the Wizard of Oz" Warne. Having grown up seeing him bamboozle batsmen from all over with his leg spinners, leg breaks, flippers etc., his retirement from the international cricket gives me such a big heartache. This year has seen too many sporting legends retire;Agassi, Schumacher, Zidane and now Warne.The cricketing world is surely losing one of its gems and I sincerely hope that ESPN Star can somehow bag him as a commentator at least.

Here s little video showing how magical the wizard's bowling was.
