Test cricket's all-time leading wicket-taker faces back-to-back Test tours over the next two months and another season with English county side Hampshire before the much-anticipated Ashes series with England here later this year.

The 36-year-old master leg-spinner bowled 335.2 overs in seven Tests -- 50 overs more than any other bowler -- in the recent southern summer season and is faced with tours of South Africa and Bangladesh and captaining Hampshire before leading Australia's bowling attack against England at the Gabba in November.

Warne, who has captured 659 Test wickets, said Tuesday he had no plans to ease off on the English county circuit, as his captaincy and bowling commitments for Hampshire had to be met.

"The game will dictate how many overs I bowl," he said when asked by reporters on how he would manage his prodigious workload ahead of an important home 2006-07 summer.
