10 best exponents of the cut shot in cricket history

6 Brian Lara

West Indies' Brian Lara could play almost any cricketing stroke one can think of and while the cut shot might not have been his best shot, he was certainly one of the best exponents of the shot.

Throughout his career, Lara was better known for his spanking cover drives but he deployed the cut shot to great effect whenever he saw an opportunity and the square cut was probably his favourite shot. No batsman in the world played the square cut as well as he could.
