“The entire world is with the people of Ukraine as they suffer an unprovoked and unjustified attack by Russian military forces. The pictures are horrific and I can’t believe more is not being done to stop this. Sending lots of love to my Ukrainian mate @jksheva7 and his family,” Warne had tweeted.

The legendary cricketer died on Friday of a suspected heart attack at a villa in Thailand.” Shane was found unresponsive in his villa and despite the best efforts of medical staff, he could not be revived,” a statement read. “The family requests privacy at this time and will provide further details in due course.”Shane Warne, regarded as one of the greatest-ever bowlers in the history of the sport, picked up 708 wickets in 145 Tests in a career spanning over 15 years.
