Warne wants more heads to roll after South Africa tour shambles

SYDNEY: Spin king Shane Warne has called for more heads to roll over Australia’s embarrassing tour of South Africa, saying the game’s top brass must also be held accountable.The drama-filled four-Test tour was won by the Proteas 3-1 with a crushing 492-run win in the final match in Johannesburg on Tuesday, handing them their first series victory at home against Australia since 1969/70.Warne said the bloodletting should not stop there. “Australia have a lot of questions to answer and I believe heads must roll on and off the field,” he wrote on Instagram. The former legspinner was a broadcast commentator for the last two Tests.“Australia need new people who are passionate about the game in charge, but understand the game. Australia can be a force again, but need the right people involved. “There is a huge opportunity now for players and people to be leaders. All positions are in jeopardy and need to be looked at, heads must roll.”Warne put the heat on Cricket Australia chief executive James Sutherland and team manager of performance Pat Howard while analysing the series defeat, Fox Sports reported.
