The Indian captain replied to the tweet: "Verified Where's he from??? He's unreal."

South Africa captain Faf du Plessis replied: "No ways that's crazy."

Fox Cricket had shared a video on Twitter last month where a child, still in his diapers, is seen playing some of the most elegant cover drives in textbook fashion.

The video, that went viral, sees the kid doing indoor practice and displaying a wide range of drives on the front foot as the ball is thrown at him.

"Surely he has an English cat or dog..." Vaughan had written while tweeting the video.
