Some really uncanny cricketing shots

3. Mahendra Singh Dhoni: India’s Dhoni made the ‘Helicopter shot’ famous, during his early cricketing days – his quick-fire 147 against Pakistan at Vizag being testimony to the fact. The shot involves rotating the bat like a propeller to gain more momentum and power during the hit. Dhoni showed he has a great sense of occasion too, as he ‘piloted’ India to win the 2011 World Cup, of course hitting the winning six using the above mentioned shot.
