“Get him in your squad, Virat Kohli. Can you pick him?!?!” Pietersen posted on Instagram with the video, his tongue firmly in cheek.
The Indian captain replied to the Instagram post, “Verified Where's he from??? He's unreal.”
South Africa captain Faf du Plessis replied, “No ways that's crazy.”
Fox Cricket had shared a video on Twitter last month where a child, still in his diapers, is seen playing some of the most elegant cover drives in textbook fashion.
The video, that went viral, sees the kid doing indoor practice and displaying a wide range of drives on the front foot as the ball is thrown at him.
Former South African opener Jacques Kallis was left mesmerised by this young kid who is yet to get rid of diapers.
