| 词条 | Helicopter shot |
| 释义 |
The helicopter shot in cricket is the act of flicking the bat toward the leg side when facing a yorker or a fuller-length delivery, and finishing the stroke with a flourish by twisting the bat in an overhead circle.[1] This shot, which requires excellent timing and wrist-work, is considered a new innovation in cricket, and is seen as an unconventional form of batsmanship.[2] Traditionally, faster bowlers have used yorker-length deliveries toward the end of limited-overs matches because it is difficult to hit such balls to the boundary. The helicopter shot is one answer to this tactic.[3] The first batsman to play helicopter shot is thought to be Sachin Tendulkar,[4] in the 2002 NatWest series against England at Durham during an innings of 105* coming at number four. The shot was popularised by MS Dhoni, but it was fellow player Santosh Lal, a childhood friend of Dhoni's, who taught him how to play the shot.[5] See also
