Former India cricketer Aakash Chopra on Friday shared a video of a young cricketer playing MS Dhoni’s trademark helicopter. Along with the helicopter shot, the kid also showcased and impressed everyone with a variety of shots.
Some of the shots included some of the difficult shots in the book. The ease with which the youngster hit the ball straight over the bowler’s head, spoke volumes about his talent and defied his age with his clean stroke play.
The batsman was not interested in hitting the ball along the ground as in one of the strokes, he got down on one knee and slogged one over mid-on.

The ICC had recently announced the expansion of T20 World Cup and ODI World Cup to 20 teams and 14 teams respectively. This meant about 55 matches to be held in a single T20 World Cup.
The Delhi-based cricketer turned commentator felt that ICC was feeling the pressure due to some of the domestic leagues like the Indian Premier League (IPL).
“The 20-over World Cup is going to have twenty teams now. ICC was probably feeling the pressure of domestic T20 leagues and because of that, the T20 World Cup is going to have 55 matches. It is as big as an IPL,” Chopra said.
