After Shane Warne called former Australia teammate and captain Steve Waugh “the most selfish cricketer” that he ever played with, the latter in his reply said that Warne’s comments are a reflection of himself.
“Wow ! So S Waugh was involved in the most ever run outs in test cricket (104) & ran his partner out 73 times – is that correct ? (sic),” Warne had said while responding to a stat talking about the number of times Waugh was involved in run-outs during his international career.

“For the record AGAIN & I’ve said this 1000 times – I do not hate S Waugh at all. FYI – I picked him in my all time best Australian team recently. Steve was easily the most selfish cricketer that I ever played with and this stat,” he had said in another tweet.

Waugh, in his reply, stated that he has “nothing to do” with Warne’s comments.
“People keep saying it’s a feud,” Waugh told Nine Papers, as quoted by Hindustan Times.
“But to me, a feud’s between two people. I’ve never brought into it, so it’s just one person.
“His comments are a reflection of himself, nothing to do with me.
“That’s all I’d say,” he added.
