Melbourne, May 11: Former Australia cricketer Shane Warne hit out at the country's obsession with the 'Baggy Green' cap and according to him, the iconic cap evokes 'verbal diarrhoea' from its followers. Although Warne launched a scathing attack on this obsession, he stated it doesn't mean he didn't like playing for Australia.

His love for the country isn't limited to a cap, according to the second highest wicket-taker in Test cricket.
