In the ever-evolving game of cricket, everybody needs to try and do different things to be one step ahead of the opposition. For this only reason, the batters have begun to play outrageous shots and bowlers have invented different variations.
For instance, Kevin Pietersen was the one who popularised the switch hit that revolutionized shot-making. T20 requires such inventions on regular basis. In the T20 blast, yet another shot has now been played.
During the Derbyshire vs Leicestershire match, Leus du Plooy played a ramp shot with a different touch. He played the shot with the back of his bat that went for a boundary. While facing spinner Scott Steel, du Plooy cleverly put his bat in a position where the ball bounced off his bat, above the wicket-keeper, and went to the boundary.
