#3 Lofted drive over covers
Among all the shots that he plays, this could be termed as the least complicated one. Still, his shots are incomplete without movements which he does incorporate in this one as well. The right-hander moves a couple of steps across towards leg and makes room to clear the hitting arc and to a fuller delivery, drives the ball uppishly over covers/extra covers.
Against spinners, the movement is minimal as he waits for the ball to land and the bat makes a beautiful swing from the back shoulder to the front shoulder with a high back lift which makes the shot look stunning. More often than not, the ball lands into the stand. Though he is an off-spinner, yet hammers his counterparts mercilessly.
