CBA buys Shane Warne's baggy green to raise $1 million for bushfire relief

Australia's all-time leading Test wicket-taker Shane Warne has auctioned his iconic baggy green for $1,007,500, after a winning bid from the Commonwealth Bank this morning, with all money raised going to the Australian Red Cross Disaster Relief and Recovery Fund.
