Hello
Australia's chief selector stressed the need to ensure there was no hangover from the departure of such an influential individual.
The Australian legend passed away while on holiday in Thailand this March.
It was natural that Yasir Shah's delivery found comparison with the “ball of the century” bowled by the late Shane Warne at Manchester in 1993.
Yasir's ball pitched well outside the leg stump, turned big to bamboozle a well-set Kusal Mendis and hit the top of off stump.
Fans are unhappy that Warne's advertisements continue to be shown nearly four months after his demise.
Warne, who died at the age of 52 of a suspected heart attack while on holiday in Thailand in March, was showered with awards in the sporting world but had never been formally honoured by his country.
Here he is, 14 years later, on the verge of delivering the Royals only their second shot at the IPL crown.
Three-year-old bay colt Sacred Oath, ridden by Callow, won the 1,200m race.
More than 50,000 mourners chanted their hero's nickname Warnie at the outset of the service at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.
About 80 people attended the service including retired Australian Test captains Mark Taylor, Allan Border and Michael Clarke, while former England skipper Michael Vaughan was also present.
