Australia's men's hockey team fell 3-1 to hosts Great Britain in their return to London's Olympic Park since winning bronze at the 2012 Olympic Games.
Jamie Dwyer scored for the Kookaburras, his 11th goal since March, as the squad warmed up for the World League games later this month.
Coach Graham Reid said he was not too concerned about the loss.
"We were trying a few things today. It was a good opportunity for a hit out and it's given us a bit of clarity for what we want to work on," he said.
"We had passages of good play but just couldn't string it together and finish them off. There was a lack of connectedness between the lines.
"Credit to GB. They came out to play in front of a large home crowd."
Australia welcomed back Kieran Govers from a hamstring injury for his 100th international appearance in the first of two warm-up matches for the World League Semi-Final in Antwerp, starting next weekend.
It was a significant turn around for Great Britain with 15 of their 18-man squad having suffered a 5-0 reverse to the Kookaburras when England and Australia clashed at last year's World Cup, which the Kookaburras went on to win.
