Sri Lanka vs Afghanistan lone Test was halted on Saturday when an uninvited guest invaded Sinhalese Sports Club, Colombo. The SLvsAFG Day 2 was halted for some time after a monitor lizard entered the ground. The monitor lizard was spotted near the boundary line at first and therefore the play was not stopped. However, the monitor lizard soon crossed the boundary line and the umpires were forces to halt the play until the creature was rescued from the boundary line. Now, SLvsAFG monitor lizard video has gone viral on social media and it is garnering multiple reactions.
