After suffering a heart attack while on a trip to Thailand with his lads, Shane Warne, a CRICKET genius, was found dead at home in his holiday villa.

A friend discovered the 52-year-old spin bowling genius "unresponsive" in his bed and went to fetch him for dinner.

Two days ago, Warne, a father-of-three, flew to Samujana Villas resort in Ko Samui along with four of his friends.

The Aussie, one of the greatest cricket players and a scourge for England Ashes teams, had stated that he smoked, drank, and bowled a little bit of leg spin.

He shared an image of the resort’s infinity pool on his first night.

Warne, his cricketing hero and friend, died 12 hours after he tweeted his sorrow at the passing Rod Marsh, Aussie wicketkeeper, who had suffered a heart attack at age 74.

The villa was not saved by the Medics who called for help. Warne is a Sky Sports pundit, coach of London Spirit and coach to last year's Hundred.

According to police, his room was not the victim of a break-in. Senior Sergeant Major Suporn Hemruangsree stated that the deceased was found with four friends and had died in his room. They were in separate rooms within the villa.

"They slept from afternoon to evening until around 5 p.m.

"At 5 p.m., someone called out the deceased to have dinner. The deceased didn't respond so three friends called to do CPR for 20 minutes.

"They waited for an ambulance to arrive. "The doctor declared the death at 6.53pm."

Yuthana Sirisombat, police colonel, said: "His body was sent to the Koh Samui state hospital for an autopsy on Saturday. We have not found any evidence of injuries at this point. Tomorrow (Saturday), police will question his friends and witnesses.

When Warne arrived in Thailand, he was seen talking to Thai fans at passport control.

Witnesses said that the star looked like he was on a boys vacation and was full of life.

His management stated last night that Shane Keith Warne died from a suspected heart attack in Koh Samut, Thailand.

"Shane was unresponsive in his villa, and despite all the efforts of medical staff, he couldn't be revived.

"The family asks for privacy at this moment and will provide additional details when necessary."

Many referred to him as the greatest spinner in cricket, having taken 708 Test wickets over a 15-year period.

He was known for his partying and he dated many beautiful women, including Liz Hurley, an English actress.

One of his favorite quotes was "I like loud music." I smoked, I drank, and I did a little leg spin. "I don't regret anything."

Former teammates and rivals were devastated by his death. England's Kevin Pietersen wrote: "F ***!"," and tweeted "RIP King."

Henry Blofeld (82), a broadcaster, said Warne had taught Warne to drink Jagerbombs six-years ago.

Blofeld added the following: "My introduction of Jagerbombs during 2016 Edgbaston Test!" Vaughan and Blofeld. Tufnell, Warne.

"What a quartet!" I had three! They were delicious, and I was tempted to go back the next night, but they resisted my request."

Michael Vaughan, an ex-captain of England, shared Christmas memories with Warne.

He stated: "One that I will treasure, all of us dining turkey, beef and the usual trimmings -- with the King sticking to his lasagna sandwiches with bread rolls topped with butter. Warney, the world's greatest superstar, is one of his friends. Everybody wanted to be with him. He was a normal man who could accomplish amazing things.

England Cricket described its nemesis as "one of the greatest of all time." A legend. A genius. You changed cricket. RIP Shane Warne."

Sarah Ferguson, Fan and Duchess Of York, paid tribute to Marsh and Warne as "two legends in sport".

Warne made his Test debut back in 1992. He took over 1,000 international wickets.

His 1993 Ball of the Century at Old Trafford, in which he beat Mike Gatting from England, was the beginning of his legend.

Shane is a film that was released on Amazon Prime in January. He said, "That ball changed me life."

He was the captain of Australia in one-day internationals and played domestic cricket in England for Hampshire, his home state of Victoria.

Warne announced his retirement in 2006 His behavior off the pitch was as colorful as his heroics. He was banned for using banned diuretics in 2003. His mother Brigitte said he had been given them by her to help him lose weight.

Warne was back, and in 2005's Third Ashes Test, he became the first ever bowler to win 600 Test wickets.

It was revealed that Mark Waugh and Mark Waugh had been fined by the Australian Cricket Board three years prior for accepting money from a bookmaker in exchange for information regarding the pitch and weather.

Warne's wild partying led to his marital problems. He divorced Simone Callahan, his wife and mother of his three children, Brooke, Summer, and Brooke.

After the 2005 split, the star was devastated to reveal that he was left in his hotel room alone and had to cry himself to sleep. He had slept with other women.

He spoke out about his alcohol battle to documentary filmmakers and said: "I believe that was the lowest."

"The effect on my children, they wouldn’t get to meet me and that was their fault. I would return to the minibar. I was alone on the hotel floor crying "you d***head" Warne's ten year marriage had been characterized by many extra-marital affairs.

Simone stood by him after it was revealed that he had harassed a British nurse with obscene messages. This cost him his Australia vice-captaincy position in 2000.

After several high-profile affairs, he attempted to get back together with Simone but accidentally sent a sexy text intended for another woman.

Before the couple split in 2013, he was engaged to Liz Hurley, a model and actress.

Lawrence Mooney, a Sydney radio host, was Warne's friend last year. He said: "His life consists of Tinder, beers darts gambling and cricket. That's all.

Warne joked that he smoked 100 cigarettes per day last September to get rid of Covid. He had been positive for Covid, which forced him to miss The Hundred's coaching sessions.

Warne stated that he doesn't play enough golf due to Covid. This is not gospel. It's a tongue-in-cheek joke. However, I was convinced that if I smoked 100 cigarettes per day, I could kill Covid.

"It didn’t work, and I ended up with a ventilator. It wasn’t ideal."
