ENGLAND'S cricketing nemesis Shane Warne (above) has agreed to help Australia in their quest to regain the Ashes this summer after his old teammate Darren Lehmann was appointed coach.

Leg-spinner Warne, who now works as a media pundit, terrorised England during Australia's years of domination in the 1990s and 2000s, and took 195 Ashes wickets at an average of 23. Now he will pass on his wisdom to the current crop of Aussies, who have been branded as no-hopers in some quarters.
