Warne burns bowling hand

SHANE Warne is confident he will be fit to make his return to cricket in Australia's Twenty20 competition this weekend despite burning his bowling hand while cooking.

The 42-year-old leg-spinner posted a picture of his blistered right hand on his Twitter page along with a plea for remedies. Warne said he had a "95 percent chance" of playing his first cricket in Australia since retiring from test cricket at the start of 2007. "They just drained all the blisters and then they cut them all open so they wouldn't fill up again," he said. "There's just a couple of awkward ones on the spinning fingers. But hopefully I've got four days and it should be fine by Saturday."
