Snake stops play!

How often do you hear it? But that's what exactly happened during the Lanka Premier League match between Galle Titans and Dambulla Aura.

During the second innings, just before Shakib Al Hasan was about to start his over, a slithering snake was spotted near the boundary rope and play had to be halted.

The game only resumed moments later, after the snake had been chased away, past the rope at the Premadasa stadium in Colombo.
