This was his final post on twitter, sent just 12 hours before his own passing was announced.

There but for the grace of God and all that.

Wtf? I can’t believe it, I’m gutted. I love Warne, a true sporting great. Just listened to a podcast yesterday about how much he’s looking forward to the 100 this season :cry:

Gutted.

A true legend of the game. You used to see off the likes of Mcgrath and Lee and be 70-0 and then Warne would be on and England would be about 100-5 not long after. You'd hate to see him ripping through us but couldn't but admire his genius.

He was an incredible bowler, great character and I always enjoyed his punditry.

RIP Shane.

Sad indeed. Had the chance to meet him at the Boxing Day test in about 2012. Seemed a decent bloke (despite being an Aussie :wink: ) Gone far too young and there’ll not be another near his class in my lifetime. RIP Shane
