We want your assist!!!!” Warne wrote on Twitter. He assured that this meant he would not play any more professional cricket matches after this IPL.

Shane Warne captained Rajasthan Royals to win in the initial season of the IPL but the franchise's fortunes slumped in the next two seasons. He has played 52 games for Rajasthan so far picking up 56 wickets at an average of 24.66. Rajasthan Royals are presently fourth in the points table in this edition and Warne called on Rajasthan's fans to support them in their last two home games.

"We have strength in the squad similar to IPL 1 - it would be great to leave on a high - I'm proud of the system that we have been able to improve young players," Warne wrote.
