Warne's mum 'devastated'

Sydney Feb. 12. Shane Warne's mother is ``devastated'' after realising she gave him the pill which could end his cricket career, according to a source close to his family.

A source close to the family was quoted as saying by an Australian news agency that Warne's mother had not yet been approached to try to explain the situation. ``The question hasn't been asked yet, it is a bit of a tender topic,'' the source said.

``She is pretty devastated herself and they don't want to go there.'' Warne had taken the pill in circumstances that were ``totally innocent'', the source claimed.
