Warne 'a myth made flesh'

Cricket writer Gideon Haigh talks to Warren Boland about his new book about legspinner Shane Warne, On Warne

Cricket writer Gideon Haigh talks to Warren Boland about his new book about legspinner Shane Warne, On Warne. He says writing about Warne, who he reckons is in a different league from his contemporaries for his abilities as a spinner and his habit of lighting up a cricket field, was as enjoyable as watching him play. He calls him a "myth made flesh" and "the most compelling personality of our cricket time." More from ABC.
