Flick shot., one of the most beautiful shots in cricket which the batsmen hit towards the leg side. It is one of the toughest shots to play as the timing of the shot is very important as the shot goes up in the air and there is a risk of a catch if one misses.. Also choosing the gaps in the field while playing this shot is very important..
There are some players who have mastered the flick shot. If it is nowadays like Virat Kohli, Steve Smith.., if it is the time when he starts watching the game, Sanath Jayasuriya, Saeed Anwar, Mohammad Azharuddin, Sachin Tendulkar, later VVS Laxman, Adam Gilchrist, Kevin Pietersen etc…. It seems like the masters of this shot.
In this, Sanath Jayasuriya seems to be the best in this shot.. The batsman who has always played the flick shot well in his career with his strong arms.. Jayasuriya is seen hitting sixes with ease compared to others.
A Sanath Jayasuriya shot that makes you doubt that there is ‘spring’ in the bat. Jayasurya, who was excellent on the on side, played well with flick shot and pick up shot even in Test format.
