Even as Indian eves get ready for their maiden Women's T20 World Cup final, a young girl named Taanisha Sen was busy winning the Internet and Brett Lee with her sublime batting skills.

The International Cricket Council (ICC) on Friday shared a video, featuring the six-year-old girl from Bengaluru and the Aussie great, to the amazement of cricket fans.

Impressed with Sen's skills, Lee said "I'm nervous, it's like I'm seeing Sachin Tendulkar as a girl when he was six. This is incredible."

"A six-year-old, holding her own against @BrettLee_58. @Neroli_Meadows introduces us to a star of the future, @Taanisha_Sen," the video was captioned by T20 World Cup's Twitter handle.

"I can't see a reason why she can't go on to represent her country," Lee said.

However, Taanisha's favourite cricketer is Smriti Mandhana, not Tendulkar.

The ICC Women바카라™s T20 World Cup 2020 final will take place at the Melbourne Cricket Ground on Sunday 8 March, International Women바카라™s Day.

India and Australia have qualified for the final after the semi-finals at the Sydney Cricket Ground on Thursday evening.

India progressed as the top-ranked team in their group after their match against England was washed out. Host and defending champions Australia defeated South Africa by five runs in the other semi-final.
