New Delhi:
Although it was a harmless water snake, it is reported by the Daily Mail that Stuart Meaker had quite a fright when he saw it in the swimming pool of their team hotel in Kochi. The 23-year-old pacer opted out of taking a dip although an eyewitness has been quoted as saying that the 'reptile was hardly as big as Meaker described it to be!'
The snake was removed by members of the hotel staff.
England take on hosts India in the second ODI on Tuesday and will be looking to take a 2-0 lead in the 5-ODI series.
