THE FLAMBOYANT INSIDE-OUT SHOT
If the limited-overs cricket has given a perfect stage to the evolution of innovative stroke-making, then the inside-out shot happens to be one of the top finds by modern-day cricketers. This shot actually gives the batsman the luxury to despatch the ball piercing through any kind of protective field setting to earn some valuable runs.
Kohli, with his outstanding technique and an intuitive mind, plays the inside-out shot to perfection. Moving towards the onside, Kohli thrives on the room to loft the ball over the infield for some quick runs.
This unique shot helps Kohli snatch a lot of runs against both the flighted deliveries of the spinners and the pitched up balls by the seamers. Not only Kohli, this inside-out shot is a favourite shot of his teammate Suresh Raina also.
