Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) director Mike Hesson was awestruck by the batting of a 6-year-old kid from India. He told everyone to watch out for him in the future and remember his name.

The kid is very good with defense and blocks everything thrown at her with the full face of the bat. Even the feet and head movement were too good for a six-year-old.

As written in the tweet, the girl's name is Swara Gurav and she is from Pune. Although she is just 6, Swara already started playing cricket at the age of four.

"Remember the name ???? #SwaraGurav," wrote Hesson. Even former New Zealand all-rounder Grant Elliot dropped a comment on the post. He jokingly said the girl is protecting her TV. "Defense needs to be sound. If she misses the ball it could smash the TV screen behind her".

 

"Early start to “Consequence Training Sessions” Grunter," replied Hesson to Elliot. 

Grant was coached by Hesson during his playing days with New Zealand, and he funnily blamed him for his poor defense. "You never had those training with me. No wonder my defense was junk.", wrote Elliot.
