Eccentric Cricket Shots Video Gallery

In celebration of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2011, The Hindu posted a slide show of some of the most eccentric shots in cricket, and I thought a video compilation of those will be more illustrative than images. So, here it is:

The helicopter shot

The discoop

The switch hit

The paddle-sweep

The slog sweep

The Collingwood catch

Err.. Couldn't get a video of the "short arm jab." So here's one of the greatest catches ever by the man in discussion. Yeah, it's pretty lame to settle with a video of a catch, but by golly! What a catch!

The reverse sweep
