Warne and sundry Australian players were caught out last Sunday night at Melbourne's appropriately named Love Machine in Prahran.

Baggy-greeners Brett Lee, Michael Clarke, Adam Gilchrist and Andrew Symonds were among the players who hit the regular patrons for a six when they strolled to the crease shortly after midnight.

Several "maidens" were reportedly bowled over by the sporting superstars' presence in the club's VIP lounge.

"I didn't realise it was a gay night," Warne was heard joking, according to the Herald Sun newspaper.

However, the players seemed unfazed playing on unfamiliar grounds, with Lee, Clarke and Symonds all chalking up innings of around five hours each.

They were joined for the duration by Warne's "best friend", former St Kilda and Carlton footballer Aaron Hamill.

While the players seemed to enjoy their time out, they declined to be photographed.

The Herald Sun reported the gathering was a "reunion" for Warne, who went to school with Love Machine club ambassador Warwick Joseph.

"It was great to catch up after all these years," Joseph said.
