In a touching tribute amid his Melbourne show, the singer, who co-parents two children with his ex, Gwyneth Paltrow, honored the memory of the late cricket legend Shane Warne, who passed away two years prior.

Chris solemnly dedicated the song “Sparks” to Warne, saying: “Let’s play this for Shane and his family. Our brother, we miss you. Every time we come to Melbourne, it used to be fun to hang out with Shane and all the Warne family.”

He said: “I don’t want to talk about it too much or I’ll start to cry.”

Chris Martin and Shane Warne shared a profound friendship, united by music and sports.

Known for dating Elizabeth Hurley, Shane was often spotted at Coldplay concerts, receiving praise from Chris as a “warm” and “supportive friend.”

In an emotional salute at a Melbourne concert, Chris Martin paid homage to Shane by showcasing a Melbourne Stars jersey with Shane’s iconic number 23 at the end of the band’s performance, draping it over his microphone stand in remembrance.

The Melbourne Stars took to Twitter to acknowledge the tribute, posting: “So good to see Chris Martin reppin the Stars jersey last night in memory of his great mate Shane Warne.
