Ramp shot

Ramp shot or Marillier shot – a type of batsman’s hit with the bat held parallel to the level of the field, while its front part is directed towards the bowler.

Due to the fact that it seems as if the batter is attempting to throw the ball over the head of the wicket-keeper, the term ramp shot in cricket was coined to describe this particular action.

Who Did the First Ramp Shot in Cricket

Marillier shot, on the other hand, is a second name. It was named after its founder and finest performer, Dougie Marillier, who was a former cricketer from Zimbabwe. He provided evidence of its effectiveness, which led to the New Zealander Brendon McCullum and the Sri Lankan Tillakaratne Dilshan beginning to rely on him.
