You probably have never seen someone bowl quite like this.

20-year-old cricketer Shivil Kaushik, who plays for the Gujarat Lions in the Indian Premier League, is attracting attention for his rather bizarre bowling style, which looks like one of those crazy inflatable flailing arm men you see in front of used car dealerships.

Although the unorthodox bowling action did get out two Australian batsmen from opposing team Kings XI, Kaushik's team Gujarat Lions eventually lost by 23 runs on Sunday evening. At least Kaushik looked cool while losing.
