Arjuna Ranatunga photo viral: Whenever there is a mention of heavy bodied cricketers in the game of cricket, the picture of former Sri Lankan captain Arjuna Ranatunga comes to the mind of the fans. This batsman, who made Sri Lanka the world champion in 1996, was heavy in body but was adept at playing big and fighting innings for his country. He was also adept at making strategies. But the recent pictures of Ranatunga, who once had a toned body, are troubling the fans. He has lost his weight to a surprising level, which fans are now not believing. His latest picture with India's World Cup winning captain Kapil Dev is going viral.
Ranatunga's weight drops to an astonishing level
However, it is not yet clear whether Ranatunga has lost weight voluntarily or due to some health problem. But Ranatunga's weight has dropped to a surprising level and it is difficult to recognize him even by looking at his pictures. Looking at his recent pictures, it is difficult to imagine that he was once an overweight player.
Fans are shocked to see the picture
Fans on social media are going crazy over his picture with Kapil Dev but these shocking pictures of him came out last year when he was giving his opinion as a cricket expert during the Asia Cup.
