Warne passed away on March 4, 2022 after the spin legend was found unresponsive in his villa in Thailand, with many suspected to be as a heart attack. The news of his passing shocked many fans and cricketers across the globe.

Two years on, the cricket world continues to mourn Warne's passing with tributes coming in from all corners.

Recently, Indian spinner Kuldeep Yadav visited Australia and the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) wherein he paid tribute to the great spinner.

“Shane Warne was my idol, and I had a very strong connection with him,” said Kuldeep during his visit to MCG.

“I still get emotional when I think about Warnie—it feels like I’ve lost someone from my family,” he said.
