Cricket Viral Video: Apart from all the things, Cricket is famous for sledging as well. Australian players are known to be the best in this field, which has been proven several times. During the 1993/94 Johannesburg match, Shane Warne bowled out a superb delivery and dismissed Andrew Hudson. However, what happened later, remains as one of the most intense sledging ever.
The most intense sledge ever
Australia had not played a Test match on tour in South Africa since they were humiliated 0-4 in that country in 1969–1970. Despite being greeted by 8,000 fans at the airport, it was expected that the tour would be played with sportsmanship and friendliness. South Africa had played in Australia the previous summer and drawn the Test series 1-1. Australia saw the next tour as an opportunity to take revenge.
During the match’s first innings, Border waited until the 49th over to bring Warne onto the field. However, in the second innings, Warne was introduced in the 44th over, after several other players like McDermott, Hughes, May, and the Waugh brothers had bowled. Border eventually called for Warne with the plea, “we need you, Warnie, come on, get us a wicket.”
Warne skillfully bowled Hudson around his legs in just three balls. However, Warne’s celebration turned ugly as he charged towards Hudson, spewing a stream of anger. Ian Healy intervened to calm the situation, and Warne later regretted his actions, admitting that Hudson had done nothing to deserve this kind of behaviour. Warne subsequently offered an apology to Hudson for his behaviour.

Along with fifties from Wessels and Peter Kirsten, South Africa declared their innings at 450-9 and proceeded to bowl out Australia for 256. As a consequence of his misconduct, Warne was fined £220 by ICC match referee Donald Carr, and the Australian Cricket Board deducted his match fee of £2,000.
