Shahrukh — finisher par excellence

‘When the bowlers miss, I hit them out of the park’

The eye of a tiger and the calmness of a monk; qualities of a finisher.

The finisher is a rare breed. He does not receive too many balls to face, has to strike almost immediately after sauntering in, take the game deeper, and deliver the decisive, sledge-hammer blow.

As Shahrukh Khan said to The Hindu, “When they [the bowlers] miss, I hit them out of the park.’
