cricketlover Posted April 26, 2011 Posted April 26, 2011 Ponting's pull is the most beautiful to watch
Jersey #10 Posted April 27, 2011 Posted April 27, 2011 Jayasuriya hook shot - His trademark shot which he has perfected [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sdJFMTRgbis]YouTube - THE MADDEST SHOT OF CRICKET-SANATH JAYASURIYA[/ame] anything short on middle leg is automatically a six while sanath is batting
Khalpat Posted April 27, 2011 Author Posted April 27, 2011 One more beauty: Steve Waugh Square Drive yFrfaCodRAs
straight.drive Posted April 27, 2011 Posted April 27, 2011 i am sure helicopter shot will win it Helicopter shot may be effective, but it does look ugly, no grace only power.
vvvslaxman Posted April 27, 2011 Posted April 27, 2011 Rahul Dravid's on drive is worth mentioning. Especially his 84 in his debut series was full of stunning on drives.

Yes no list of batsman shots can be completed without Rahul Dravid. I am not able to find his video , I admire his square cut the most and as far as the word drive is concerned on or off no body can come close to your username VVS Laxman Drive dNXWFkxeIdI

lonestarranger Posted April 27, 2011 Posted April 27, 2011 i am sure helicopter shot will win it Even somebody like Uthappa can play something like the 'helicopter'. But, it's bloody difficult to play a shot like this. | | | \/ One more beauty: Steve Waugh Square Drive yFrfaCodRAs I think real-life cricketers can relate to this question/know better.
Zelig Posted April 27, 2011 Posted April 27, 2011 I like Damien Martyn's square cut. Elegance personified. Ofc Laxman, Sachin, RD et al. I am starting to like Kohli whipping the ball from oustide off stump through mid wicket/midoff region.
Temujin Khaghan Posted April 27, 2011 Posted April 27, 2011 ganguly's and yuvraj's coverdrive one is sheer timing, the other is about power.

More than Damien Martin I liked the cut of Mark Waugh.He was able to hit The ball for four even when the ball was very close to his body.
ganeshran Posted April 27, 2011 Posted April 27, 2011 Sachin's straight drive... and Dada's off side drives..
cricketlover Posted April 27, 2011 Posted April 27, 2011 I also liked Inzy coming down the track to smash a spinner for a six into the next province.. Ponting's Pull, Sehwag's backfoot cover drives, and gilchrist's slashes are also good to watch
Sachinism Posted April 27, 2011 Posted April 27, 2011 Sachin's backfoot punches through cover :adore:
NareshK Posted April 27, 2011 Posted April 27, 2011 Laxman's on drive looks better off fast bowling than off a spinner IMO. He makes it look effortlessly easy.:two_thumbs_up:
