Read this article in thie morning's Sydney Morning Herald. An interview with Michael Clarke which provides good insight into how Shane Warne was able to separate what was happening in his personal life to perform so well in last year's Ashes series.

Yeah I read that article in the paper. hmmm no doubt all cricketers have a strong mental, especially Warnie as he's so experienced.

I'm surprised he is good mates with Clarke considering he is 11 years younger but thats nice

Warney = Legend
