About this listen
In No Spin, Shane sets the record straight. From his extraordinary family history to his childhood as a budding Aussie Rules footballer in suburban Melbourne. From the legendary ‘Gatting ball’ to his history-making 700th Test wicket. From the controversy surrounding the diuretic pill in South Africa to his high-profile relationship with Hollywood star Elizabeth Hurley. Nothing is off limits, and Shane tackles it all with his trademark directness and humour.
These days an incisive, charismatic TV commentator and analyst, the ‘Sultan of Spin’ also lets us in on the mysterious art of leg-spin bowling, revealing the secrets of some of his deadliest deliveries. As Shane says, ‘Few batsmen, if any, truly know what I do.’
A sporting great, a celebrity, a family man and a self-confessed regular Aussie bloke from the suburbs, in No Spin Shane offers a compelling insight into how a boy from Black Rock changed the face of cricket forever.©2018 Shane Warne (P)2018 Penguin Random House Australia

Story
Sultan tells the story of cricket's greatest left-arm bowler, and one of its enduring survivors, who was chosen from the streets of Lahore and groomed by Imran Khan to become champion of the world—he was Man of the Match in the final of the 1992 World Cup which Pakistan won. Along the way were unforgettable rivalries with the legends of his time, from Viv Richards and Ian Botham to Sachin Tendulkar and Shane Warne. All of this against a backdrop of conspiracy and intrigue over ball tampering and match-fixing, about which Wasim finally sets the story straight.

Story
At the epicentre of England's historic triumph was Ben Stokes, the talismanic all-rounder with an insatiable appetite for The Big Occasion. He contributed an absolutely critical 84 runs off 98 balls when England batted, a seemingly nerveless innings of discipline and maturity. Thrillingly, it was enough to tie the scores at 241 runs each, so the match reverted to a Super Over - just six balls for each side to bat in the ultimate in sporting sudden death. Stokes and his batting partner, Jos Buttler, saw England to 15 runs off their over.

Story
All cricketers long to know the answer to these questions and many more. Only 15 years ago, it would have been difficult to answer them - cricket was guided only by decades-old tradition. Data has changed everything. Today we can track every ball to within millimetres; its release point, speed and bounce point are measured as are how much the ball swings, how much it deviates off the pitch, the exact height and line that it passes the stumps and multiple other variables. Hitting Against the Spin is the story of that data, and what it can tell us about how cricket really works.

Winner of 14 major golf championships and 79 PGA Tour events, Woods was the first billion-dollar athlete, earning more than $100 million a year in endorsements from the likes of Nike, Gillette, AT&T, and Gatorade.

When I was growing up, if you'd have put me up against a wall with the other kids from my street and asked me which one of us was gonna make it to the age of 60, with five kids and four grandkids and houses in Buckinghamshire and California, I wouldn't have put money on me, no f--king way. But here I am: ready to tell my story, in my own words, for the first time. A lot of it ain't gonna be pretty. I've done some bad things in my time. But I ain't the devil.

Great story
Most books about cricketers are more about facts and some basic controversies. Shane Warne tells a story that not many outside of Australia might be aware of. He also gives a good insight into his mind as a tactician and talks about problems he faced head on.
The commentary is good however some of the pronunciations of international cricketers is cringeworthy. While I understand that Indian names might be hard to pronounce but there were some glaring English cricketers names that were a little irritating. Mostly other than this the book is a nice listen and worth a listen.

Awesome read, from a South African fan
I’ve been living in the States for over 20 years now, but vividly remember the first years of Shane bursting on to the cricket scene. Most definitely the greatest and most exciting cricketer of all time in my book. As a teenager, I hated the fact that he nailed the SA team time and time again, but was also mesmerized by this young guy with his larger than life personality and awesome leg spin skills.
Back to the book and why it is awesome:
Thank you Shane for writing this brutally honest book. Information is priceless for any cricket fan, and the insights into all the things that happened during his life and career is absolutely fantastic. The narration was also spot on and very easy to listen to. Great choice. So I would strongly recommend this read or listen to any cricket fan in general, but most definitely any fan of Warnie Or Australian cricket. I think the insights and detail in the book will capture the imagination and you won’t be able to stop listening. Enjoy!

Honest
Inspiring, in-depth, honest and capturing. Love the way he has opened up and been honest about his failings and successes and how his never say die attitude captures your imagination. His apologies are sincere and his friendships true. A New Fan was born by the end of the Book.
