When you hear, "out of the cricket book," whose name you most think of? Obviously, AB De Villiers, the man who we call Mr 360, for his abilities to hit the ball out of the park and any parts of the ground.

But it has become more common in modern cricket. We often see several cricketers play some unorthodox shots, which has been a rare case in the history of cricket.
But in the modern era, not only just International stars but also domestic cricketers have become experts at playing some unorthodox shots.

And that is what we saw in the recent T20 Blast match between Leicestershire and Northampton. Leicestershire batsman Josh Inglis played an unorthodox reverse sweep to score a boundary. His initial thought was to play a reverse sweep, but when he saw a back of the length bowl, he changed his stance to push it towards the third man for a four. Inglis scored a century in the match. You can watch the video of that shot here:

Leicestershire and Northampton played an entertaining T20 Blast match on Sunday at the County Ground at Northamptonshire. Both the team currently placed rock-bottom in the league table.

Leicestershire won the toss and opted to bat first. Leicestershire batters proved that captain Colin Ackermann's decision was right as they posted 200 runs on the board and lost only two wickets in their restricted 20 overs of play. Josh Inglis scored a brilliant 62 ball 103, which includes 13 fours and four sixes.

In response, Northamptonshire managed to score 166 runs with the loss of 7 wickets in their 20 overs. For Northamptonshire, Rob Keogh scored a fifty while opener Richard Levi finished the inning as the second-highest run-scorer with 30 runs.

Josh Inglis was named player of the match for brilliant hundred, which played a crucial role in Leicestershire's victory.
