Megastar Amitabh Bachchan shared a video of a boy showing great striking skills and playing orthodox strokes with some unusual strokes.
Watch the video here:
The video has since racked up nearly 8,000 likes and more than 5 million views.
Although Amitabh Bachchan claimed in his description that the child came from India, the images come from Pakistan’s Sindh province. Many videos of the boy have been posted on his Instagram page, @razamahar12.
Mr. Bachchan was criticized by many fans for sharing a video with inaccurate information. But many others praised the rookie cricketer and said there should be no difference based on nationality.
A Pakistani musician, Goher Mumtaz, responded to Mr Bachchan’s post, writing: “Sir, this lad is from Pakistan; I saw this a while ago through a Pakistani page with his ID, but the future of cricket is in our hands if we agree to play in each other’s country, Inshallah… “Btw, I’m your biggest fan.”
“You are certainly right on the point where the future is in safe hands for both parties if we quickly bring back the old days where we see both stars playing on both sides,” another user commented.
The boy’s very precise shot and timing were appreciated by many users.
Mr Bachchan regularly posts interesting content on social media. Yesterday he posted a video of a man waving his long tuft of hair on the back of his head as he walked down the road.
In the caption of the video, Mr. Bachchan related it to the hot summer weather.
