Everything related to Shane Warne's return to test cricket is in compltely confused state! He said he would consider coming back for 2009 Ashes if "Stuart MacGill is injured and not able to bowl and Ponting ask his help."
When asked about Warne's return, Ponting said he was not aware about Warne's return. Warne did not speak to him about it. He said, Warne's return is not possible as he has already retired.
"I've got no interest at all at this stage," Warne told AAP. "I'm very happily retired, I'm comfortable where I am at the moment."
He was the captain and coach of the IPL winning team of Rajasthan Royals. The winning of IPL and the success of bringing the team together for the should have made him to think about coming back to test cricket.
I actually said I was happily retired and if Stuart MacGill broke his leg - which he hasn't, he's retired - and there was no other spinner in Australia and if Ricky Ponting asked me, I'd consider it," Warne said. "If that's coming back out of retirement, I'm not sure. I don't think it is."
Ponting has not called Warne. "I'm sure if I rang him and said, `I'd like you to come back in South Africa and India,' he would probably put his hand up," Ponting said in the Courier Mail. "Warney made it pretty clear that if there was absolutely no one else around, he might consider it.
He further added, "I haven't entertained the idea of asking Shane to come out of retirement, no. He's probably hoping I have, but I haven't just yet."
