![]() The Sneetches in the end are a metaphor for a lesson learnt.

They met in the old barn in the morning to arrange their plan of action, but none of them could think of any plan of action to arrange, and the meeting broke up gloomily at lunchtime, without having come to any decision at all.

The incident is detailed in Gideon Haigh’s book “On Warne”. ![]() ![]() Warne’s flipper became as famous as it was feared and all of a sudden a spinner was among the most intimidating Australian bowlers to face.Ĭuriously the cricketing world might owe Warne’s mastery to a childhood accident that forced him to use a wheelchair, which he credited with improving his arm and wrist strength. His willingness to experiment with new deliveries opened up the art of spin bowling to a world of variations. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Self empowerment," Anna says at one point, reminding herself to go through with the plan.
