Spin legend Shane Warne and the Rajasthan Royals team expressed shock at the Mumbai terror attacks and said they stand by the city in its hour of crisis.
“We are disappointed to not be playing (in Champions League) but right now our thoughts are with the people affected by this tragedy,” Warne, captain-coach of Rajasthan Royals, said in a statement.
Warne was on his way to Mumbai for the now-postponed Champions Twenty20 League but once he heard about the attacks, he stayed put in Singapore before deciding to return home.
Royals chairman Manoj Badale also expressed shock at the attacks and said, “We are deeply saddened by the tragic incidents that took place in Mumbai on Wednesday. We think of Mumbai as a second home for the Royals, and we all feel terrible right now for the wonderful people of Mumbai who make it such a vibrant city.”
