MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Heard it described unsatisfactorily on the radio and now have managed to find a video of it on youtube.
barking shot, but amusing to see - get that wrong and you're eating leather 🙂

It may be iPhone pantsness or the fact I'm at changi, or both, but sadly I can't see the vid to comment 🙁
It should be called a KP Skip.
🙂
he ducks his head just as he hits it so he's not going to get hit in the face.
It's a reasonable percentage shot at best, it has to be against the right kind of off-spinner (the newer 'wristy over the top' type) rather than the more orthodox kind.
When it goes wrong (think 1st Ashes Test 2009 versus Nathan Hauritz), I would describe it more accurately as a tosser's shot played like a tosser, by a tosser.
The man has so much talent it really has gone to his head. He's like a dervish when he first goes in, fiddling about and playing about three different shots before the bowler has even let go of it.
I don't think anyone 'dreads' seeing him come out to bat against them - it could be a ton or it could be another quick wicket. Not like when the real greats came out to bat.
Boycs may be a pain in the arse, but he is rarely wrong when it comes to batting. If you've got a decent defence first and foremost, everything else can come from that.
Now in the uk and watched it...
Isn't that the "dilshan"?
Love him or hate him, its only a matter of time before KP has more runs and `undruds than any other englishman, i mean anyone who has played for England. Really can't see what else he can do.

'undruds
Strauss is ahead of him and going strong.
Bell and Cook aren't far behind and will probably play a fair few more tests than him to come in the future.
So, a good chance that he'll go down as the fourth best "English" century scorer of his time. If that was a school report it'd read "could do better, lacks effort".

That would be great, cheers 🙂
I may need a lid and gloves too though....
Off to Europe to do fieldwork for 10 days, then flitting backwards and forwards between Bangor and Bolton for the remaining 7 weeks - would be great even if only for an hour or so - really appreciate it!

Commentators called it the 'dilscoop'. Although the shot was probably first played by Zimbabwe's Doug Marillier against Glen McGrath in 2001
