If at all there was any doubt left on the 'leadership acumen' of Shane Warne, it was erased in this cracker of a match! Even after Rajasthan Royals started losing wickets, Shane Warne ensured that the entire team got the bigger picture right and kept the momentum going, not choosing to be defensive like Tendulkar or Jayasurya. By setting a massive total, Shane Warne outplayed Sehwag at his own game plan, giving him enough jitters to unnerve him.
More observations are welcome to make this a good case study!

You are absolutely right. It is an excellent example of teamwork where Share Warne, as a leader, has capitalized on the strengths of his teammates, motivated them, and, more importantly, brought them together as a unit.

After the thrilling final, it's more evident - if there was one person who made the difference to Rajasthan Royals, it was the superb leadership under pressure by Shane Warne.
It's not difficult to see what all would have gone into his quest to be a successful leader, especially in the multicultural environment of IPL. He led by example. He built self-confidence in the team players. Instead of banking on the proven players, he identified talent, trained, and motivated this talent to perform. He made effective use of his resources allotted to him. He got into the skin of each and every player of his team. He kept himself aware of the situation at every stage to be able to make quick decisions. He displayed trust in the abilities of his players and also gained the trust of all his players. He took every match as a fresh challenge and refused to be drawn into complacency.

Just came across a great video of Shane Warne on YouTube YouTube - Best of Shane Warne.
Wonder if someone could make one from the IPL series, captaining the Rajasthan Royals...that would be fantastic.

We are all capable of doing something, and that is exactly the reason why we are doing what we are asked to. But to haul it all up as a collective effort takes the vision, compassion, and level-headedness of a great leader.
Soon after moving to Jaipur, Shane Warne wrote a paper that would serve as the vision for the Rajasthan Royals over the next 44 days. Warne's plan culminated in success as the Indian Premier League's least expensive franchise edged the Chennai Super Kings in the final.
Even before the tournament started, Shane Warne was studying his team. When Warne had presented his vision paper to every individual, he had given a tag of responsibility to each player. He prepared actual documents for each of his players underlining what their roles will be. In the paper titled 'What's My Role':
- Shane Watson, who is not even in the national side, had a three-point agenda with details on his fielding position and ways he should be motivating the other fielders.
- Yusuf's read "The Statement Maker". Yusuf Pathan's task was: "1. Be aggressive, dominate the start of the innings. Play with freedom, take 'em [bowlers] on. 2. [Bowl] Stump-to-stump off-spin. 3. Field in the ring early on and in the deep later." The iconic man from Baroda lived up to his billing and made the most telling statement when it mattered.
In a way, Shane Warne had a very thorough project plan in place.
A great leader, as Shane Warne remarkably exhibited throughout this series, is not someone superior to you. A great leader is rather someone who helps you understand your abilities, instills in you a passion to win, and cheers you up even in the worst adversities.

Shane Warne has really proved to the world of cricket that anything is possible if you can be a good leader. The IPL tournament presented an opportunity of a lifetime for players from local and international sides to play together as a single team. Shane Warne's team did not contain big names in cricket. What he did was something truly inspiring. He had a vision for the entire IPL, a clear road map to achieve his goal, ensured that every individual was given a unique role to play, provided constant mentoring, support, and, above all, trusted his team members. It's important to stay calm and prove your mettle rather than be aggressive and achieve nothing. Hats off to Shane Warne and his team for the spectacular show.
