A brilliant shot invented by Peiterson. It makes no sense that batsman should tell the bowler when he is going to switch hit. Also ICC should make some rule changes so that when the batsman tries to switch hit the bowlers should be given some reprieve regarding the wide rules and the LBW rules. The rules should be fair to both to batsmen as well as bowlers. But thanks to Peterson for bringing such innovation to cricket and making it more exciting to watch.

true. no restriction to batsman from switching. but bolr shud b given liberal treatment for lbws and wides in this regard.
KP turn his stance from right hand to left hand and go for six over mid wicket but bowler set the field according to the right handed batsman so if some one want to change his right to left and vice-versa combinition for scoring run , similarly bowler also allowed to bowl suddenly from over the wicket to round the wicket to get the wicket of the batsman.

but the bolr has to inform to ump and also to the non-striker batsman, abt his change from over the wkt to round the wkt. he doesnt do it 'suddenly'. but neway batsman shud not b debarred from switching right-left.
