Some really uncanny cricketing shots

5.Douglas Marillier: Another Zimbabwean known for his cheeky hits was Marillier, who became famous for his ‘Marillier’, a shot which he used in Zimbabwe’s famous 2002 ODI victory against India. The ‘Marillier’, though almost similar to the ‘Dilscoop’, is a shot where the bat is used as a ‘Ramp’ to flick the ball over the batsmen’s shoulders, preferably to fine leg. The ‘Marillier’ can be placed among some of cricket’s cheekiest shots, as Anil Kumble and Zaheer Khan will certainly vouch for that!

India ‘Marilliered’ in 2002!
