reverse swing is a very hard shot to master since you have to play it without a bat and you have to run so footwork is very important. :facepalm

how is that a cricket shot??
 
Marillier shot that he used for pulling unexpected victories against India during early 2000 series. It was classy!
 
Buddy, reverse swing isn't a shot played by a batsman. It's a delivery bowled by a bowler when the ball swings opposite to the direction it is supposed to swing (correct me if I'm wrong). You're probably trying to talk about one of those wild reverse pulls played by AB de Villiers to hit the ball for a six behind the wicket. :)

He knows what he has typed. You need to look at the poll options. :p
 
Paddle Sweep. The most graceful unorthodox shot ever.

It's hard to find footage of the shot on youtube. Help, anyone?

Here and yes I agree it is one of most graceful looking unorthodox shot. Never gets old.
 
Favourite unorthodox one at the moment is the off-side scoop. ie. instead of scooping over fine leg, you angle the bat the other way and it goes through the slips. Dan Christian played a beautiful one last week in the Big Bash. Just has that extra element of smugness to it :D
 
I like dilscoop because it has a lot of risk and only dilshan can play it.
 
Lots of guys have been missing the scoop and the ramp in the Big Bash. If you can't play it well, it just seems a great way to get yourself out...
