A 16-year-old boy named Bharat Singh, who hails from the Rajsamand district in Rajasthan, hogged the headlines on Friday (29th July) with his bowling.
His bowling skills amazed Congress leader Rahul Gandhi as he retweeted the video that went viral on the internet. In the clip, the boy can be seen nailing his yorkers in the area created by him using a fishing net.
Gandhi requested Rajasthan chief minister Ashok Gehlot to help make Bharat’s dream come true and provide him with all the facilities.
Paying heed to Rahul Gandhi’s request, Gehlot met the young cricketer at his residence and said the boy will be trained at the cricket academy of the Sawai Mansingh Stadium.
The Rajasthan CM also mentioned that Bharat will get training from expert coaches and will also be provided with all the facilities, including accommodation and food.
