A tribute to Shane Warne at the Melbourne Cricket Ground
Tributes have come from around the world following Shane Warne's death on Friday

A minute's silence was held before the Australia men and women's matches as people paid their respects to the man who died on Friday.

One of the greatest cricketers of all time, leg-spinner Warne, died of a suspected heart attack at the age of 52.

The stand at the Cricket Ground will be renamed as a tribute to the man.

Fans left flowers, beer cans, and photographs at the statue.

In 2006 he claimed his 700th Test wicket at the ground, and in 2006 he took his first Test hat-trick.

The family of a man who the premier said defined a generation was offered a state funeral.

He was the greatest, but to his family he was much more. Our hearts are broken for his family and friends.

I have offered a state funeral to his family so Victorians can pay their respects to him.

People of national significance are honoured at state funerals.

Scott Morrison has offered a state funeral for his family.

Ricky Ponting, who captained the team from 2004-2007, called him the greatest bowler he had ever played with.

He gave me a nickname. We were teammates for more than a decade, riding all the highs and lows together.

He was someone you could always count on, someone who loved his family, someone who would be there for you when you needed him, and always put his mates first.
