@@muhammadamirkhan8891 C'mon? Yasir Shah was good but Warne is in a different league who has inspired generations of leg spin bowling. What kind of records are you even talking about is beyond my comprehension. He has bowled "the ball of century" as well as taken 700+ test wickets. Compared to him, Yasir Shah is an absolute nobody. Stop being deluded and feel privileged to be in the era that witnessed a legend like Warne.

The fact that leg spinners don’t get lbw decision for a right handed batsman if pitched outside leg stump, and still he managed to get 700+ test wickets despite playing outside south asian spin friendly conditions mostly, is quite scary. He would have easily end up with 1500+ wickets if everything is taken into account. He is simply the Spinning God along with Murali. 2 GOAT 🐐 spinners of all time. 🙏🙏
