It is a big day for Shane Warne on Friday, as Australia's greatest ever bowler turns 50.
Warne is Australia's record Test wicket-taker and was at the heart of a dominant side through the 1990s and 2000s, up until his international retirement in 2007.
Albeit not without controversy on and off the field, Warne revolutionised the game with his mastery of leg spin, ending the dominance fast bowlers had prior to his introduction.
To celebrate a true reaching his half-century, we look at his career in Opta numbers.
