Sunil Gavaskar shocked by Shane Warne's death but says he was not the greatest spinner

Sunil Gavaskar has spoken at his shock at the death of Shane Warne but does not think the Australian tweaker was the greatest spinner of all time. Speaking on a show on the India Today television channel, Gavaskar said Warne's death at the age of 52 on Friday due to a suspected heart attack in Koh Samui, Thailand, had left him speechless. Warne's death followed that of fellow Australian great, wicketkeeper Rod Marsh, at the age of 74. "Within the space of 24 hours, the cricket world has lost two giants of the game, not just Australian cricket but the cricket world. Rodney Marsh and then Shane Warne. This is unbelievable. Hard to come to grips with," Gavaskar said.
