Lillee reflected on a 4WD trip in the bush outside of Perth, when a punctured tyre meant they stopped just after spotting an eight-metre long snake.
“I said I’d watch out for the snake while Bacchus (Marsh) got under the car to lower the spare,” he said.
“I pinched one of his ankles .... he hit his head on the under-carriage and then shot out from under the car and got back in.
“I just couldn’t stop laughing, but it backfired as he refused to get out and I was left to change the tyre with one eye looking out for that bloody reptile.”
