Use “Shift+W+Up & Left arrow” to play a massive shot over the wide third-man and third man region. The batsman usually guides the ball, if they’re a pace in the bowl then you’ll get a massive 6 runs.

Use “Shift+D+ Left & Down arrow” to play inside outshot in covers and point region. [Inside-out]
Use “Shift+D+ Down arrow” to get a boundary in the mid-off region, this is one of my favorite shot. Very effective shot against left-arm spinners.

Use “Shift+D+Right arrow” to smash the ball on the Square leg & Fine leg region. You can get big runs with this key even on Yorkers. In replays, it seems like a Mahi’s Helicopter shot.
