10 best exponents of the cut shot in cricket history

2 Geoffrey Boycott

Former England great Geoffrey Boycott was one of the most technically correct batsmen to have played the game and while he was famous for being a ‘defence first’ player, one of his stock attacking shots was the cut shot.

It was one of the most productive shots in Boycott’s repertoire and needless to say, his technical brilliance ensured that he played the shot perfectly at all times. Moreover, he never played it in the air and the point or gully hardly ever stood a chance to catch him out.
