Cricketing World mourns the sudden demise of spin wizard Shane Warne

After the sudden demise of spin wizard Shane Warne, the cricketing world is mourning and paying tribute to the greatest leg spinner of the modern era on and off the field.

While paying tribute to one of Australia's greatest player, Test captain Pat Cummins described Warne as a once-in-a-century-type cricketer whose records will live on forever. Australia and Pakistan cricket team observed a moment of silence ahead of the start of play on Day 2 in Rawalpindi.

Meanwhile, England captain Joe Root termed Warne as a massive idol who could win a game single-handedly.

Australian women's cricket team also paid their tribute to the greatest cricketing icon and observed a moment of silence ahead of their ICC ODI World Cup match against England.

In Australia, the fans paid floral tribute to Shane Warne's statue outside the Melbourne Cricket Ground.

In a condolence message, former captain Mark Taylor said, "Warnie came in and gave Australian cricket a point of difference and showed the world the subtleties of the game of test cricket."

On Friday, Warne was found dead in his villa on the Thailand island Koh Samui. He was known for his larger-than-life image on and off the field. He took 708 wickets in 145 Test matches and won the ICC ODI World Cup in 1999.
