“And if Samuels hadn't grabbed Hussey by the shirt, @warne888 wouldn't have grabbed his. (Biased and defensive....moi?)” she tweeted.

The cheeky WAG then attempted to expand the conversation, tweeting Glenn McGrath and England's Michael Vaughan, as well: “@warne8 @glennmcgrath11 @MichaelVaughan Question:if players were banned for swearing during the Ashes, how many would be left on the field?”

Warne was fined $4500 by Cricket Australia and given a one-match ban for breaching Cricket Australia’s code of behaviour, becoming the first player to be suspended from an Australian domestic Twenty20 competition.

Although Warne successfully argued he didn't intentionally throw the ball at Samuels, he received the match ban, a $3000 fine for manhandling Samuels, a $1000 fine for his verbal abuse of the West Indian, and a further $500 for dissent at an umpire's decision.

Warne later tweeted: "I have decided to accept my penalty of a 1 match ban! Let's hope the boys can win tomorrow & we can make the semi finals...

"Thanks for support guys, sport can be an emotional & at times very passionate too. I went to far in trying to stand up for the team!!!

Warne will watch the match from the dressing room, restricted even from sitting in the Stars dugout.

"Tough on fans who've bought tickets to see him play in what could be his last game ever....." Hurley tweeted.
