Shane Warne state funeral: When, where and how to watch as cricket legend is remembered

Shane Warne will be given a farewell in a state funeral held at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground on March 30.

The Australian cricket legend tragically passed away earlier this month at the age of just 52 after suffering a heart attack while on holiday in Koh Samui, Thailand. Warne's family accepted the offer of a state funeral from Victoria premier Daniel Andrews and millions will be tuning in around the world to pay their respects.

Over 50,000 people are expected to attend the service at the MCG, which is due to start at 7pm local time. The event will also be livestreamed at several cricket grounds around Australia, including the Gabba and the Sydney Cricket Ground.
