Warne admits `ball of the century` to bamboozle Gatting was a `fluke`

Sydney: Former Australian spinner Shane Warne has revealed that he still did not understand the mystery behind the `ball of the century` he bowled to get Mike Gatting out in 1993, adding that it was a fluke and he was lucky.

This year`s Ashes series, which will start at Trent Bridge on Wednesday, coincides with the 20th anniversary of Warne`s astonishing dismissal of Mike Gatting at Old Trafford. Gatting, who was on the wrong end of the impressive delivery, said that he was content to be central to such a prominent episode in Ashes history. A report said that the wicket had remained Warne`s signature in his career despite the 707 other Test wickets he took during his time. Both Shane Warne and Mike Gatting will feature in interviews in a Cricket Australia digital series chronicling 13 great Ashes moments, the report added. ANI
