What’s a “legspinner ?
Just like baseball has different types of pitchers, a legspinner in cricket focuses more on delivering the ball with spin rather than speed.
Two type of spinners - leg and off. Former uses wrists to introduce spin while the latter uses fingers.

R.I.P. Warney.
Legspinning must be a matter of quick, simple movements during the game, meant to keep away from your opponent. Not heard of before.
Shane Warne’s story sort of reminds me of another now retired sports star, David Beckman. Both highly capable athletes, well liked as men, who peaked during their sporting years.
Both tended to dabble in numerous ventures afterward, looking for something that would be both lucrative and that would satisfy their ongoing need for attention.

At least he died fully vaxxed...

“What’s a “legspinner”?”
It’s cricket....who the hell knows.
The whole sport is bizarre IMO.
Two bases??? Weird.

Rare but effective that is what they say

The death would have been more severe if he hadn’t been vaxxed.
