Saif Ali Khan Bowls in Viral London Club Cricket Video
Saif Ali Khan is a famous movie star from India, and he also loves cricket.
A video of him playing the sport has gone viral on the internet.
In the video, Saif is wearing white cricket clothes and bowling the ball very fast at a London club match.
He looks fit even though he is 56 years old.
Fans said his bowling style reminds them of Darren Gough, a famous bowler from England.
Cricket is in Saif's family, because his father, Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi, was one of India's greatest cricket captains and led the team from age 21.
His grandfather Iftikhar Ali Khan Pataudi also captained India in 1946.
Saif has said that watching his father taught him about discipline, focus, and passion.
Apart from cricket, Saif keeps making movies, and his next film is called Haiwan.
A viral video shows Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan bowling fast in cricket whites during a London club match.
The clip, originally posted by Prince Cricket Academy, drew praise from fans who compared his action to former England bowler Darren Gough.
The 56-year-old actor is the son of Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi, one of India's greatest cricket captains, who took on the role at just 21.
Pataudi played 46 Tests and over 310 First Class matches for Delhi, Hyderabad, and Surrey, while Saif's grandfather Iftikhar Ali Khan Pataudi also captained India in 1946.
Khan was last seen in the Netflix movie Kartavya and next stars in Priyadarshan's Haiwan alongside Akshay Kumar, reportedly as a blind samurai.
