Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  I whakamoemiti a Shane Warne ki a Richie Benaud hei 'papa tapu o te kirikiti' whai muri i te matenga o te rangatira o mua o Ahitereiria me te kaiwhakaputa i te 84 o ona tau. I mohiotia a Benaud mo tana korero mo tana kirikiti i muri i tana neke atu ki te umanga papaho i te tau 1956 i kite ia ia hei reo o te keemu i Ingarangi me tona whenua. Ko ia ano hoki he kaihauturu katoa i mau i nga whiwhinga 228 ka eke ki te 2,201 i roto i nga Whakamatau 68 kaore ano kia ngaro tetahi raupapa i te kawenga mo tona whenua. Ka kitea ngā mihi ki te whakapakoko o Richie Benaud i te Sydney Cricket Ground i muri i tana matenga i te 84 o ona tau. He mihi o te hopuoro me te tohu whakamātautau a Benaud o te tau 190 ka waiho ki te whakapakoko. Ka kitea ngā haki i runga ake i te Piriti Harbour o Hīnia e rere ana ki te haurua hei mihi ki a Benaud. Ka whakatū te haki o Ahitereiria ki te haurua mō te kaitākaro kirikiti o Ahitereiria me te kaitohutohu. Ko tetahi o nga korero rongonui a Benaud i runga i te 'pōro o te rautau' - ko te tuku tuatahi a Warne i te kirikiti Ashes i peia ai a Mike Gatting - me te hoa 45-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau-tau. 'E Richie aroha,' ko tana tuhituhi. 'Kua tata ki te 30 tau taku mōhiotanga ki a korua ko Daphne, ā, ki te katoa he kōrero koe i ngā taumata katoa, ā, he tika hoki. I te mea he kaitākaro kirikiti, he kaitohutohu, he tangata hoki, ko koe te mea pai rawa atu, ā, hei tāpiri atu, he tangata tino rangatira... 'Mo au he honore, he manaakitanga hoki ki te karanga i a koe hei hoa tata, hei kaiako hoki, he maha nga wa tino pai i noho tahi ai matou, e korero ana mo te kirikiti, ina koa, ko to maatau aroha me te ngakau nui ki te bowling takai waewae. Ka maumahara tonu ahau ki ā mātou kai whakangahau me ngā wā harikoa katoa i noho tahi ai mātou i roto i te wā roa. 'Kei te hiahia ano ahau ki te whakawhetai ki a koe & Daphne mo to tautoko katoa & te wa i hangaia e koe mo au hei kaitakaro kirikiti taiohi me te kaikawe takahuri waewae e ngana ana ki te ara hei 18 tau te pakeke, he nui te tikanga o o tohutohu me o tohutohu i te haerenga!!! 'Richie, i arohaina koe e te katoa, ehara i te whānau kirikiti anake, ko koe te papa o te kirikiti, ā, ka mihi katoa ki a koe... Kia ora, e taku hoa.' I utua e Shane Warne...
I mate a Richie Benaud i te 84 o ona tau i te Paraire. I mohiotia ia mo tana korero i tana kirikiti. Kāore a Benaud i ngaro i tētahi raupapa i a ia e rangatira ana i Ahitereiria. I tere te utu a ngā rangatira o te hākinakina.
