Frank Belmont Warne (3 October 1906 – 29 May 1994) was an Australian first-class cricketer who played for teams on four continents during a 95-game career that stretched from the mid-1920s to the early 1940s.

It was five years before Warne would taste first-class cricket again, and when the time came it was in England, for Worcestershire, taking 3–33 in the first innings against Oxford University.

[6] That winter, he went to India and after one appearance for the Indian University Occasionals against a Viceroy's XI, he played for Retrievers in the Moin-ud-Dowlah Gold Cup Tournament.

He hit precisely 1,000 first-class runs (the only time he ever achieved that landmark), and took 44 wickets, by some distance his highest season's tally.

[9][10] From then until 1938, he was largely a county player, although in both 1935–36 and 1937–38 (but not 1936–37) he went back to India in the English winters to play for a variety of teams, including three times for the semi-official[11] Australians in 1935–36 and once in each season for the Europeans.
