And the warning this time is for the Australians. One of their own, the incomparable Shane Warne, believes that they have become ugly and arrogant which will lead to their downfall. He has come down especially hard on former coach John Buchanan and his 'radical' suggestions on increasing competition at the World level.
Below is the link to the story.

But the problem is, the Australian arrogance stems from the results and it will continue till some nation defies the laws of cricket to hand them a defeat in their own land.

Warne on Tendulkar
A headline in Hindustan times today said ‘’Warne Backs Tendulkar to score heavily’’
Just because he is old does not mean he is finished, said Warne. Well, that is something every Indian knows Mr Warne. We all have tried our best to finish him off (Including this scribe on the blog) but he has survived both verbal and on-field yorkers!
Coming back to Warne, and his line of reasoning: Both Tendulkar’s genius and the fact that Wickets in Melbourne, Sydney and Adelaide are going to be pretty flat.
If Tendulkar does play two–three special knocks, it will set up India really well. But one of them must come at Melbourne.
