Vihari has notched up 552 runs in nine Test matches he played for India since making his debut for the national side against England in 2018.

He was also part of the national side's two-match Test series against New Zealand. Vihari smashed a fighting 55-run knock during the the second Test in Christchurch, but India went on to lose the series 0-2.

Earlier this month, Test opening batsman Cheteshwar Pujara also posted a video of him batting in the nets on social media.

"Getting back into the groove!#saturdaysession #musictomyears," Pujara wrote in a tweet along with a video in which he could be seen driving, pulling and defending the ball.
