Another candidate for weird stance is Kevin Pietersen. He is perhaps the most unconventional batsman of the modern era. Credited with the invention of the switch hit, the shot was the centre of a lot of debate and controversy. Mind it, its not a reverse sweep. He changes the grip on the bat from a right handers grip to a left handers grip and then hits the ball over the point boundary as if sweeping over the square leg boundary. The power he generates in the shot is really amazing. He is also pretty mobile at the crease. He has scored 8,181 Test runs in 181 innings at 47.28 and 4,440 ODI runs in 125 innings at 40.73.
