Legendary Australian leg-spinner Shane Warne seems to have discovered a new way to be a superhero off the cricket pitch—by donning a Superman costume on New Year’s Eve to go out with a posse of friends dressed as comic book stars.
Warne was joined by model and photographer Rosanna Faraci, who dressed as Catwoman, and glamour model Kirsty Lee, dressed as Wonder Woman, reports dailymail.co.uk.
The 45-year-old, who took 708 wickets in Tests, posted the pictures on social networking site Instagram as he welcomed the New Year.
“Kaos tonight !!!!” he wrote. “Lucky I have Cat woman @rosannafaraci & Wonder Woman @kirsty_lee_kl keeping me safe !!!! Happy new year.”
A second picture showed a bigger group, featuring several friends dressed as Catwoman, one as Spiderman and one as IronMan.
In 2007, Warne had played his parents (pic below) and himself as a baby in a series of VB Beer advertisements.
