Glenn Maxwell has revealed the "powerful" text messages he received from fellow former Australia star Shane Warne while he was going through a difficult period in his life.
Warne's death was announced earlier this month, after he was found unresponsive in his villa while on holiday in Thailand. Friends rushed to try to revive the 52-year-old, but he was later pronounced dead at a local hospital before an autopsy later revealed he had died of natural causes.
A special documentary aired in Australia this week, celebrating his career and life ahead of his state funeral next week. In the Channel 7 one-hour special Warnie, friends and former team-mates pay tribute to the King of Spin's ability on the cricket pitch and iconic personality off it.
