Mumbai: Former Sri Lanka skipper Kumar Sangakkara is famous for his excessive appealing and sometimes does have the habit of getting a bit too cheeky. This time around the veteran decided to troll Aussie spin wizard Shane Warne.
While performing a task on a television reality show, Warne ended up getting bitten on his head by an anaconda and Sanga decided to see the lighter side of the incident.

Warne plunged headfirst into a box filled with snakes on an episode of Network Ten show "I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!". When he lowered his head into the box, an aggressive anaconda bit the legendary leggie.
It was later revealed that the snake was not venomous by one of the TV officials. "The juvenile anaconda is the one that actually struck Shane," a Network Ten spokesperson told Cricket Australia.
However, Sanga was not concerned about Warne but the snake that bit the Aussie legend. The Sri Lanka veteran was at his wittiest best.
It was rumored that @ShaneWarne was bitten by a snake during a dare on the show but don't worry twitterverse the snake is absolutely fine

Sangakkara tweeted the ‘snake is absolutely fine’ taking a dig at Warne. It would be interesting to see what Warne replies.
During the Sri Lanka tour of United Arab Emirates (UAE) in 2013-14 to play against Pakistan, Sangakkara was at his best again. In the second ODI, Pakistan were batting first. They were 157 for one in the 35th over with Ahmed Shehzad batting at 80 with Mohammad Hafeez.

Spinner Seekkuge Prasanna bowled a delivery, Ahmed Shehzad played it over the short cover fielder and called for two. The throw came at Shehzad’s end and on his second run Shehzad felt he had misjudged the two. Sangakkara seemed to have collected the ball, trying to remove the bails. Fearing a run out Shehzad made a desperate dive to get to the crease only to see the ball arrive much later.
