Warne management released a brief statement on Friday afternoon confirming the cricket icon had died in his villa in Koh Samui, Thailand.
Not only legends in Australia, Warne is widely regarded as one of the best players in history, after taking a surprising 708 goal in 145 test matches.

After retiring in 2013, the warne moved into a comment box and continued to be a popular figure around the world. He began working more regularly as a coach in recent years.
Statement from Warne Management said: ‘It was with great sadness, we suggested that Shane Keith Warnne died of alleged heart attack.
‘Although there is the best effort from medical staff, he cannot be revived. The family asks for privacy at this time and will provide further details in time. “
Warne survived by three children Brooke, Jackson and summer.
Named as one of the five Cricketers of the Century in Wisde, Warne also claimed 293 international goal and helped Australia win the World Cup in 1999.
With his first ball against England, in his first ash test, the warne produced what was known as the ‘century ball’ to stop the former England captain Mike Gatting.
The price has poured for a warne, with Indian Heroes Virender Sehwag called Australia as a ‘superstar’ and ‘legend’.

“Life is very fragile, but this is very difficult to understand. My sincere condolences to family, friends, and fans around the world.”
British and Wales cricket boards, meanwhile, said: ‘One of the biggest all time. A legend. Genius. You change cricket. Rip Shane Warnne. “
