The Cricket Web Podcast #36 - The Curse Of Ishant Sharma

International Debutant
That is interesting, especially as Haigh has always been fairly sycophantic towards Warne. There was a fairly negative Warne biography from a few years ago by Paul Barry (although that was a fairly ordinary book iirc).
Probably a bit late in replying to this, but the thing is that Haigh was sycophantic towards Warne and the book was definitely intended to present Warne in a positive light—to the extent of spinning* things to justify a favourable view, but the impression I took away was largely negative. Furthermore, I definitely didn't know as much about Warne before reading as I did after, and I'd have felt better off not knowing, as he didn't come off as the most agreeable human, to say the least.


*No pun intended
