Reminds me of the Rachin Ravindra videos from a decade ago.

Reminds me of Sarfaraz Khan,same stance and same style of playing unorthodox shots, Sadly he isnt even picked in XI in his IPL team.

Meh, nothing but buffet balls waiting to be hit.  Rough him up with some bouncers before anointing him the next great batsman.

Training him to be good with both bat and ball. Batting improves early and more appealing for young kids of this age. So equal focus is there. Bowling, I take more as a drill, only 2 overs a day after every 1-2 days.  It's more like a workout where it is helping his muscles get stronger and making his bowling better. Every delivery is a rep. Started bowling with lighter ball and with this approach and now he is bowling as good as with heavy cricket size ball as he did with smaller and lighter ball.

It was a joke, ffs.

Why is he batting with the middle stump?

 

 

[cowboysfan]

is he too poor to afford a bat? may be we should sponsor him.

Come on now. He has the entire kit on his person. Helmet, pads, whites etc. He can obviously afford/arrange for this stuff. Why would the parents/sponsors not throw in a bat?

 

My question was from a talent development point of view. Never seen any of the regular cricketers practice in this fashion in the nets.

Helps to learn how to middle the ball better. 

 

Before you ask - it doesn't have to be the middle stump, even off or leg would work to learn how to middle the ball :-).
