The magician of spin dominated world cricket for almost one and a half decades since his debut in 1992 against India in the Sydney Test. The fans, experts, and his colleagues remembered the master of bowling on his 53rd birth anniversary. They poured out their hearts while wishing the birthday to the legend. The list includes the likes of former Indian greats Sachin Tendulkar and Yuvraj Singh as well.

Here’s how former legends and fans wished the birthday to the all-time legend:

 

Here's the special tweet from Shane Warne's Twitter account:

Speaking about Warne’s contribution to the game of cricket, then he enjoyed a celebrated career scalping 708 wickets in 145 Tests alongside 293 scalps in 194 ODI. The Victorian great is still on the second spot in the list of highest wicket-takers in the longest format of the game just behind the Sri Lankan legend Muttiah Muralitharan who ended up his career with a remarkable number of 800 wickets.

Apart from his handsome cricketing career, Warne was also known as the bad boy of Australia as he ended up involved in a couple of controversies. After retiring from international cricket, he happened to appear in the inaugural edition of the Indian T20 League. He captained the franchise of Rajasthan in the tournament and won the inaugural title by stunning all the big teams like Chennai, Mumbai, and Kolkata.

Warnie’s caliber is something like explaining the sky and universe on a piece of paper. It is being said because of his immense and great contributions to the game in his 15-year-career.
