India is a land which has loads of enriched cricketing talent. There is a cricketer in every girl and boy in every house of a place where 140 crore people live together. There are often videos available on the social media where young children copy the bowling action or bowling style of famous Indian cricketers such as Jasprit Bumrah or Virat Kohli. Such a girl named Sushila Meena went viral on the social media, whose bowling action looks similar to former Indian cricketer and ace pacer Zaheer Khan. Zaheer was a legend of the India national cricket team and probably introduced the art of reverse swing in India.
