VIDEO | David Warner puts on ambidextrous show in nets

Although it is usually attributed to former England cricketer Kevin Pietersen, the switch hit is believed to have been first executed by South African Jonty Rhodes. Rhodes smashed a switch-hit six off Darren Lehman during an ODI between the Proteas and the Aussies on March 27, 2002. Pietersen then pulled it off, for the first of many times in his career, against the legendary Muttiah Muralitharan in a Test match against Sri Lanka in May 2006. Since their retirement, Warner has taken over the baton of switch-hitting in the last few years and, many feels, has perfected it.
