About this listen

Everyone knows the story, or thinks they do. The leg-spinner who rewrote the record books. One of Wisden’s five cricketers of the twentieth century. A sporting idol across the globe. A magnet for the tabloids. But the millions of words written and spoken about Shane Warne since his explosive arrival on the Test cricket scene in 1992 have only scratched the surface. The real story has remained untold.

In No Spin, Shane sets the record straight. From his extraordinary family history to his childhood as a budding Aussie Rules footballer in suburban Melbourne. From the legendary ‘Gatting ball’ to his history-making 700th Test wicket. From the controversy surrounding the diuretic pill in South Africa to his high-profile relationship with Hollywood star Elizabeth Hurley. Nothing is off limits, and Shane tackles it all with his trademark directness and humour.

These days an incisive, charismatic TV commentator and analyst, the ‘Sultan of Spin’ also lets us in on the mysterious art of leg-spin bowling, revealing the secrets of some of his deadliest deliveries. As Shane says, ‘Few batsmen, if any, truly know what I do.’

A sporting great, a celebrity, a family man and a self-confessed regular Aussie bloke from the suburbs, in No Spin Shane offers a compelling insight into how a boy from Black Rock changed the face of cricket forever.©2018 Shane Warne (P)2018 Penguin Random House Australia

Good stories

Was quite an interesting listen. I enjoyed it overall. Some of the narrator'd pronunciations we're off and that was a bit frustrating. Overall it's worth a listen.

Shane Warne - more than cricket

Absolutely loved this book - an amazing Aussie on and off the pitch. He lifted the spirits of so many less fortune and always stayed true to himself. A visionary on how cricket could be played and what it took to be one of the elites in the sport he loved so much. He is sadly missed but will not be forgotten. Vale Shane Warne!

Really enjoyed Shane's storey.

Great to hear his storey. Was so lucky to see one of the greatest masters apply his art on the cricket field. Loved hearing his stories and learning of the adventures, friendships and experiences he gained throughout his career. Not only a supreme cricketer but an awesome dad to his kids. Well done Warnie!

The King!

Loved it! This book provides a brilliant insight to the greatest bowler of all time. A true Aussie driven by his values and desire to be the very best at whatever he did. Warnie brought the 'razzle dazzle' back to leg spin bowling, inspiring many kids across the world.

Thanks to Mark and Shane for writing this book through which Warnie's charismatic and loving nature will forever live on. RIP Warnie.

Shane’s passion for cricket

A well written and narrated story. I’m not a cricket enthusiast but learnt much about the game and almost fell in love with it because of the passion he has in the game.
I enjoyed the story very much and would recommend to non fans and fans of the game. A great insight again into how the press can make or ruin someone and the resilience to overcome those gossip columnists.
