Australian cricketer Shane Warne recalls the time South African all-rounder Brian McMillan gave the Australian team an almighty fright - by arriving in the dressing room armed with an AK-47!
Warnie was correct that aus-sa contests used to be the most nail biting during 1990's and also most of 2000's, it was a treat for the fans of the game like us
Big MacMillan with the long hairs was the first cricketer I watched on TV without even knowing what cricket is......my first memory of cricket....and then it became my oxygen ...
Twas in fact a 9mm pistol - not that Warnie would know the difference! He loaned this from a guard and asked the owner to remove the rounds for this prank.
It wasn't an AK47. Just a pistol without bullets he borrowed from a security guard to get back at Alan Border. Alan and Brian had a bit of sledging at each other on the pitch, so Brian wanted to get back at Alan a bit. From what I hear, when Brian entered the room, all the Ausies got a scare and got up from the table but Alan was stuck in the corner and could not get out quick enough, so he got the biggest fright of the lot.
It wasn't an AK-47,it was a small pistol and the feud was between McMillan and Alan border, McMillan went steaming towards border pointing his gun at him,AB absolutely shit himself before McMillan felt pitty on him and so smiled and said,"I'm only joking" was nothing to do with warne
@@carlmarks8170 I'm South African. There's no ways a security guard in those days would have had any kind of long gun let alone an AK-47 which was the weapon of choice of the armed resistance.
Stories alright? He's so full of it an thinks he's chopper? I've heard McMillan tell the story it's very different? And it's a 9mm and Border that he argues with?
Yeah, right... He just tiptoed his way into the Aussies dressing room and whispered to Warnie "Where's Border? Oh, he sitting over there in the corner... Excuse me while I play a prank on him." You dumb fuck.
Don't ask me about warnie. He completely dogged out a very top bloke and bowler Scott Muller. Scott and I played for different clubs in Brisbane at the time. He was on test debut at the gabba.
