Mohd. Azharuddin, who to me is one among the most elegant batsmen of our times, had a weird batting technique from '84 through '86... It was post '86 english summer where he corrected his footwork to become one of the graceful, wrsity batsmen!
In that ugly (albeit successful) '84-'86 era of Azhar - we saw Azhar jumping awkwardly at the crease so much that he would, more often than not, be in the air while striking the ball!
He was one batsmen who did skipping with a cricket bat instead of a skipping rope!
