Former English cricketer Kevin Pietersen shared videos of his son Dylan, who gained the attention of many with his stroke play, batting in the nets. 

Pietersen is counted among the best batters England has ever produced. The cricketer-turned-commentator has many records to his name and was one of the main reasons for England’s success in all three formats. 

There’s no doubt that Pietersen’s son Dylan is getting the best guidance which is quite evident from the videos that the former cricketer shared on his Instagram account.
