Warnie chases 700th test wicket - "One for each child"
Melbourne: Midway through the Ashes series, legendary spin bowler and robot dancer, Shane Warne has decided to pull up stumps on first grade cricket.
As the bowler announced his retirement yesterday, teammates revealed that he had privately flagged the idea of leaving international cricket at the beginning of the series.
"He told me we had to win the series because his time was just about up" Mike Hussey said, "It's time to be a father."
Social security and hundreds of children worldwide have celebrated after this confession.
"We've been waiting forever, previously Warne had decided to be an AFL star, a cricketer, a Vodaphone spokesperson, even Ace Ventura. But at long last he's decided to be a father."
On the eve of the Melbourne boxing day test, Shane Warne is chasing down his 700th test wicket, making him the second greatest wicket taker of all time. He's hoping to equal his world record of 704 children fathered, second only to legendary adult film actor Ron Harris.
"It'd be special to get a wicket for each child. I'm still trying to chase a test run for each sexual assual allegation although I fear I'll need two double centuries in order to reach that!."
Recently, Warne has also hinted at a possible shock reconilliation with ex-wife Simone Callahan.
"Well he's decided he's intending to become a father now, hopefully he'll try to be a husband next. Then finally a responcible human." Simone commented.
A reasonable hope.
