Ex-England commander Hussain, who Warne tortured during his 145-Test vocation, was floored by his accomplishments on the field.
 
Warne completed his vocation in 2007 with 708 Test wickets and was named as one of Wisden's five cricketers of the twentieth century close by Don Bradman, Garfield Sobers, Jack Hobbs and Viv Richards.
 
"The best cricketer who has at any point played the game," Hussain told Fox Sports before the assistance started. "Extraordinary cricketer and chap."
 
In a board conversation in the MCG with previous Australian stars Allan Border, Mark Taylor and Merv Hughes, and West Indies legend Brian Lara, Hussain recounted to a tale about Warne getting him out in a tri-series last in 1999.
 
"I sledged him for a few evident explanation and I've said something 'like partake in your last game as skipper'," Hussain said during the help. I'll be amazed in the event that you lack film of me running down the pitch, exceptionally next conveyance after that trudge clear and getting baffled.
 
"It was an honor to be on a cricket field with you - you were the best bowler I at any point saw."
 
Line accepted Warne's appearance on the worldwide scene delayed his own profession.
 
"It renewed my captaincy towards the finish of my time," he said. "I was fortunate to have two years with Shane and I simply say thanks to him for that."
 
Lara considered Warne the "best Australian that I know".
