Shane Warne bid farewell to IPL

Australian legend leg spinner Shane Warne has announced his retirement from expert cricket at the end of the IPL season. At present he is playing for the Rajasthan Royals in the IPL and in his Twitter account he stated “Yes this is my last year playing Indian Premier League. It's 100 per cent my last four games of specialist cricket unless we make the finals - maybe I have 5 or 6 left. Please come down and hold up RR for the last 2 home games vs. Chennai & Bangalore! We need your help!!!! Want RR to go out on a high - we must win at least 2 if not 3 of our last 4. I will miss the IPL but it's been fun for the last 4 seasons. RR has always authorized youth and Indian cricket has been the victor - I've had a great time - but it's time to say goodbye to IPL. Warne has played 52 matches for RR so far, has head the team since IPL's opening season. Warne has chosen up 56 wickets at an average of 24.66 so far in the four IPL seasons and he led Rajasthan to victory in the opening IPL. The leg-spinner had got 708 Test and 293 ODI wickets during his international career. The IPL was the only cricket event he was playing after leaving the international stage. a quaff swims like a trash can
