West Indies batsman Shimron Hetmyer caught everyone's attention yesterday with his whirlwind 78-ball 106 (6x6s, 6x4s) in the first ODI against India at Guwahati. The Guyana-born left-hander, a 2016 U-19 World Cup-winning captain, sent Twitter into overdrive with everyone praising his fancy strokeplay and lusty blows.'


One of the most interesting comments, however, came from India off-spinner Harbhajan Singh. Given the fact that Hetmeyer is already a hit with the franchise-based Caribbean Premier League, Harbhajan predicted that he would be surely lapped up at the next edition of the Indian Premier League. "What an inn by #Hetmyer. He is gonna be a next million dollar baby in the @IPL 2019 #INDvsWI 1st ODI," wrote Harbhajan. True that!
