Wildest cricket shot! Zimbabwe batter plays one-handed reverse sweep off George Linde (Watch video)

Zimbabwe batter Tadiwanashe Marumani probably played the most bizarre shot in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2026. During the ongoing Super 8 match of the tournament against South Africa (SA vs ZIM), the left-handed batter unusually swung the bat.

Against the spinner George Linde, the batter went for a reverse shot, but a one-handed reverse sweep, which is not something cricket fans are used to seeing every day. Avoiding every cricket book rule to play a reverse sweep, Tadiwanashe Marumani might have chosen the most peculiar style. Though he did not make contact with the ball.

The bat swing was rapid, but the impact was zero. The ball hit the pad and ended as a dot ball. The southpaw did not last long on the crease as South Africa pacer Kwena Maphaka bowled him with only 7 runs off 7 balls. Zimbabwe lost their first wicket for 14 runs in 1.2 overs at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi.
