Australian cricket legend Shane Warne is widely known as one of the greatest cricketers of all time. He was the first bowler to take 700 test wickets, and is known for "the ball of the century".

Warne's life and career has been filled with controversy, with bans for drug use and countless tabloid stories about his personal life.Â
