Warne may consider playing again for Australia

In an interview to ‘Herald Sun’ Warne lays out some conditions for making a comeback. (Mind you he said it with his tongue firmly in his cheek.)

"If you could just turn up and play Test cricket that would be cool. I would definitely consider that. At this stage, it is a fairytale."

Their bowling performances in the IPL, have shown both Warne and McGrath skills to be intact. However, one suspects their fitness will be found wanting in the longer version of the game.

Do you think Warne can just turn up and play Test cricket?

Warne looks bouncy but Mcgrath looks tired after two overs. He has recently debunked any talk of his comeback.

I'm looking for the guy who bragged Australia has a cricket set-up which is like a conveyor belt, throwing up truckloads of new talents every now and then.

imagine he plays and England whacks the crap out of him... no ashes win will erase generations of English butt jokes on the Australians

I don't think he can just turn up. Anyone can bowl four overs -- my lad did it last week and if I could get my shoulder a bit better then I could. A Test match in comparison is very demanding - heck it can be draining enough watching one :)

You are right. MacGrath looks flushed.

Warne will become the butt of jokes.

Rob,

Exactly. But if you read the whole article, Warne wit stand out.

NC,

True. However, our man (Shoaib)is now simply sitting and earning money.
