Former Australian cricketer Glenn Mcgrath earned a new title outside of his cricket field after he shared a video on social media. Netizens started calling him a professional ‘snake catcher’ after he shared his video of catching a Coastal Carpet Python from inside his residence. He further clarified that he also took two more snakes out of his house and released them in the bush. The video soon went viral as it impressed most people. His fans compared his skills with a professional, while people from other countries expressed their fear over Australians being so casual about snakes inside their houses.

The video was shared on the former cricketer’s official Instagram handle ‘glennmcgrath11’. The post was captioned, “After plenty of encouragement and support from @saraleonmcgrath all 3 Coastal Carpet Pythons that were in the house were safely released back into the bush.”

In the video, the ace former pacer was seen going towards a Coastal Carpet Python that was at the corner of a lobby. The veteran athlete had a broom in his hand so that he could handle the snake. Next, the man was seen handling and trying to control the reptile so that he could take it outside the house. The reptile tried to attack a few times but was not able to hurt McGrath. In the end, the legendary cricketer took the snake out of the house with the help of the broom.
