5-year-old makes Delhi debut

The Delhi Under-14 team had a surprise in store for their opponents as they sent out a five-year-old to make his debut in a game recently. The adolescent, Rudra Pratap, came out in full gear and then some as he faced boys almost thrice his age and surprisingly, he dealt with them like a seasoned pro.

While his teammates focused on hitting the ball to all corners of the field, Rudra showed off his impeccable technique as he gently nudged the ball for singles, singles which he had a lot of difficulty completing owing to his oversized gear and the weight of his bat.

It is fair to say that the youngster impressed quite a few with his delightful innings.
