He's only two and still wears nappies but SK Shahid has become a viral sensation in India thanks to videos showing him performing an array of impressive cricket shots.
The tiny boy can be seen in a video filmed by his father moving his feet around an imaginary crease in his home in Kolkata to hit some remarkable cover drives and straight drives.
Former England batsman Kevin Pietersen saw the video on social media and expressed awe at the boy's batting skills and asked India captain Virat Kohli if he would consider picking the toddler for the national team.
"WHAT?!?!?!?!?! Get him in your squad, @virat.kohli! Can you pick him?!?!" Pietersen wrote.
Kohli responded acknowledging the "unreal" talent the lad possesses.
"Where's he from??? He's unreal," Kohli wrote.
