Wife of cricketer Ed Cowan plays a onesie prank on Twitter

As cricket's first ladies strutted their stuff on Allan Border Medal night, eyes were peeled in anticipation of one WAG who had pledged to opt for comfort over couture.

Virginia Lette, the wife of Test opener Ed Cowan, had promised to wear a polar fleece onesie if she got 50 retweets on Twitter.

But having gained plenty of support for the stunt, fans were left slightly disappointed - Lette had never planned to hit the red carpet, instead staying at home to look after the couple's baby, Romy.

However the radio presenter didn't shirk her promise, tweeting a photo of herself in a onesie, with her hair and make-up done and holding a clutch handbag.

Hopefully the onesie will make its red carpet debut in 2014.
