A four-year-old Indian kid plays cricket like a pro, and shows the potential of becoming a legend.

In a country like India, where cricket is almost regarded as a religion, there is no shortage of boys who display immense talent for the game of cricket. What distinguishes Shayan Jamal from the rest of the crowd is that at the tender age of four, he mesmerizes the onlookers and cricket experts alike with his capability to hold bat and play shots like a professional cricketer.

Shayan’s extraordinary talent was first noted by his father Arshad Jamal when he was only two and a half. At that age, with his tiny hands, he would hit the ball with his bat very craftily. His father Arshad, who played cricket while attending university, was quick to notice Shayan’s talent. He readily encouraged Shayan to take up the game. 

Aside from his cricketing skills, Shayan is a normal kid. He attends preschool in the Delhi neighborhood of Kalindi Kunj and his routine revolves around school and cricket.
