The ability of Warne to turn the ball even on the flattest of the wickets was admired by everyone. He was the first person to breach the milestone of 700 wickets in test cricket. Warne had a stellar career on the field, but he was an aggressive figure and had a lot of heated moments off the field as well.
Despite his personality and his rivalry with fellow cricketers, he was very well respected in the community. He had a famous rivalry with Indian legend Sachin Tendulkar, and there were rumours that Sachin used to come in Warner’s dream.

Shane Warne’s career was full of controversies, from fighting with Steve Waugh to Muttiah Muralitharan to Arjuna Ranatunga, he was also accused of passing sensitive information to bookmakers, getting banned because of doping, etc. In 2017, Warne was engaged in yet another controversy.
Adult movie star Valerie Fox and Shane Warne were in a nightclub in London, where Fox was assaulted. She shared a lot of pictures of her bruises on Twitter. Fox did not use Warne’s name directly but called him a vile creature. She also insisted that she is not lying about the incident.
“Proud of yourself? Hitting a woman? Vile creature,” Valerie tweeted.
“And no, I’m not lying. Just because you’re famous doesn’t mean you can hit women and get away with it.”
After all the investigations, Warne was cleared of all the charges. Warne said that he was quite shocked about the allegations and confirmed that he cooperated well with all the authorities for the same.
“I was shocked to read the media stories circulating earlier today concerning a false allegation of assault,” said Shane Warne in a statement.
