Shane Warne final moments: Shane Warne funeral tickets booking process

Shane Warne funeral tickets booking process: Shane Warne’s state funeral will take place on 30 March at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.

After Shane Warne’s unexpected death, the cricketing world is in shock. The legendary Australian leg-spinner passed away on 4 March 2022 from a suspected heart attack in Thailand.

Warne made his debut against India, and he is just one of the two bowlers to have 1000 international wickets. Only Muttiah Muralitharan took more wickets than Shane Warne in international cricket.

Shane Warne is arguably one of the greatest players to ever play the game. He was the first bowler in the world to claim 700 test wickets. He ended his career with 708 test wickets, whereas he has 293 ODI wickets under his belt. Warne also bowled the “Ball of the Century” in the 1993 Ashes.

After Warne’s death on the Thai resort island of Koh Samui, his body was taken to the mainland city of Surat Thani. It was then transported to Bangkok, before getting transferred to Australia. Shane Warne’s body reached Essendon Fields Airport in Melbourne in a charter flight.

A picture of Shane Warne’s coffin emerged online where his coffin was wrapped in an Australian flag.
