Shane Warne, Glenn McGrath and Matthew Hayden are to return to the field in Australia to help launch the 2009/10 season in a All-Star Twenty20 match at the Gabba.
 The Test greats trio will play for a Johnnie Walker ACA All-Stars team against a full-strength Australian XI in a Twenty20 match on Sunday, November 22.
 The match, under lights, comes four days before the start of the first Test against the West Indies on the same ground.
 "I can't wait to be playing back on Australian soil with Pigeon and Haydos and the rest of the crew," Warne said in a Cricket Australia statement on Wednesday.
 "As the All-Stars captain, I'm really looking forward to working with Australia's new and upcoming players.
 "It will be a great experience to take on the Aussie team and should be a very fun and exciting match for all."
 For McGrath, the chance to play with some of the most exciting players in Australia and raise awareness for charity at the same time was too good a chance to pass up.
 "The All-Star match is a great start to the summer and I'm really looking forward to getting back out on Aussie soil. The match is going to support the Cricket Cares initiative so I encourage all cricket fans to get on board and come along to the match, or watch it on TV."
 After his success in this year's IPL, Hayden is looking forward to stepping foot once again on his beloved Gabba.
 "I have really enjoyed my Twenty20 post retirement, and this is a great way to play a game I love in my home town. This match is the perfect way to launch the summer and a great way for me to support the ACA," he said.
