Cricket greats Shane Warne and Andrew Symonds have been stung in an embarrassing, X-rated commentary blunder, tearing into Test star Marnus Labuschagne while they thought they were off air.<\/p>\n

Twitter user Lenny Phillips shared a clip of Warne and Symonds chatting casually in the Fox Cricket commentary box as they worked the Adelaide Strikers v Melbourne Renegades BBL game.<\/p>\n

Things got weird, and unkind, to Labuschagne, as Warne and Symonds were caught out in a classic 'hot mic' faux pas.<\/p>\n

"Do something now to his ADD (attention deficit disorder) f***ing pills," Symonds appeared to say, referring to the eccentric Labuschagne, who scored 91 for Australia against India at the SCG on Friday.<\/a><\/p>\n

"Yeah, f—," Warne responded.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

"Jeez it's annoying. 'No!!!' Just f—ing bat properly," he continued, referring to Labuschagne's quirky methods at the crease.<\/p>\n

"We'll have to give him the hog pile," Symonds said \u2013 a term which refers to a group of people jumping on top of someone – as the pair laughed.<\/p>\n

"Mate if you keep that shit up we're going to have to squash your guts out your arse."<\/p>\n

Not surprisingly, Twitter lit up with commentary of its own as the clip started to go viral.<\/p>\n

Kayo Sports later apologised for the "unacceptable comments."<\/p>\n
