In the video, the elephant held the bat in its trunk while a man threw the ball, and the elephant skilfully struck every ball that came its way.

This heart-warming video, shared on Reddit with the caption "Elephant playing cricket in Kerala," captured the joy of people in Kerala as they shared a game of cricket with the elephant.
