He was angry when he first heard of the launch of a musical based on his life, but Shane Warne finally decided to see the show, a decision which made him "more edgy, even, than facing Pakistani quickie Shoaib Akhtar on a green, seaming deck". He passes his verdict in the Herald Sun.
I reach the interval and think this is pretty good - and fair - but I'm getting nervous because the so-called "scandals" are about to happen. Buckle up the seatbelt, I think to myself, and count to 10.
