Whenever Shane Warne bowled, every bowl felt like an individual event. You couldn't take your eyes off it because something special might happen. In this series, every ball Alana King bowled felt like an event.

Bowling a marathon Ashes spell in the shadows of the Shane Warne stand at the MCG, and taking four wickets, was just about the perfect scenario for star Australian leg-spinner Alana King who paid tribute to the late great spin king in the most fitting of ways.

The new star of Australian cricket has delivered a leg-spin masterclass befitting the historic occasion of the MCG’s first day/night Test.
