A small compilation of 11 cover drives Kumar Sangakkara has played. No copyright infringement intended.All audio and video footage belongs to their rightful owners.
Obviously sanga is known for his signature cover drives. But to be honest, pretty much every shot he played came straight outta the the book of "How to play proper cricket shots" His pulls, his cuts, his on drives, him coming down the pitch and chipping the ball and Hell his scoop everything looked so elegant. In a way it's criminal to say that he only had one signature shot. He should be the one that every upcoming batsmen should lookup to when it comes to playing every shot that's out there with pure timing and not to worry about trying to blast everything out of the park. I was so sad that day he retired. Since that day I haven't watched a single cricket match. 😞
Lestrego then Sangakkara should have been selected in the team when he was 16 but that time he wasn't as good as he is know but Tendulkar's case is different he was selected in the team at an age of 16 because of his talent runs n determination
Kumar started playing cricket very late compared to other professional cricketers. Probably, when he was in 12-13 years because he was about to attend law school. later, he took cricket seriously. @ Anish arun.
Just pure CLASS! I witnessed him bat in chennai in a match that was washed away by rain ... What a beautiful Player ..Definitely my WK batsman in my all time XI
The moat beautiful left handed legend i hve seen aftr lara, and saurav sir...... Kumar sangakarra u beauty respct and lotss of lve to u sirr..... From India
Sangakkara naturally had the ability to hit coverdrives. That's why you ee him hit them with so much confidence against bowler bowlers In Virat's case, blud improved his class since the debut. Which honestly requires so much hardwork
there are two left handed batsmen which i just loved to watch ,,, one was yuvraj for his effortless shot making and sangakarra for his beautful shot making especially his drives

I've no words. It's a scenic view to see him driving the ball through the covers.
Favorite left handed batsman.. nice batting style.. those cover drives 😎 Respect from India 🇮🇳
Fatta broo..😍
Have almost forgot how legendary this guy's cover drives were.
One of the Greatest Batsmen ever!!.....only if he gave up wicket keeping earlier god knows how many more runs he would have made
+Dantes Inferno would have score more than tendulkar for sure if he gave up wicket keeping
+Mohammed Hafeji lol really by playing against bangladesh
totally agreed

I'm a right hander, but I always loved left handed batsmen. And there was no one better than Kumar Sangakara!
The one and only magnificent cover drive of sanga ♥️
An everlasting legend of the cricket game forever...
Swashbuckling player. Thorough gentleman. Sangakkara was brilliant. Great compilation of these drives.

SANGAKKARA❤️😍
Majestic!!!!! Amazing Batsman
The best cover driver of all time hands down!!
Sangakkara's Cover Drive, Sachin's Straight Drive, Ponting's Pull Shot and Gilchrist's flick shot for 6 on the leg side... are IRREPLACEABLE !
Cut shot...sanath....i agree with you
Flick's Sanath
Pure artist and elegance from Mahela and Sanga . What a pair of stylish play. I’d never get tired of watching
Sangakkara no.1 cricket player
And kids Says Babar Coverdrive is best
Men says Kohli Coverdrive is best
But legends says Sanga Coverdrive is masterpiece
Sangakkara naturally had the ability to hit coverdrives. That's why you ee him hit them with so much confidence against bowler bowlers
In Virat's case, blud improved his class since the debut. Which honestly requires so much hardwork
GREAT music selection. Air rules.
The most eye-pleasing cover drive ever.
He was a gem ❤️
The best cover drive in the World. Nobody plays this shot with a confident like him 😮

He is the KING OF COVER DRIVE from Chennai fan
Sangakkara the beautiful cover drive
Omg he played cover drive against jimmy in a classical manner
In an interview he said that he's more reliant on his Cover drives than defence. He can play Cover drive on any delivery on that length
Sangakara is specialist of cover drive shots
He really was an excellent player his cover drives were really majestic to watch

Sangakkara retired in his prime. He could've easily broken Sachin's record if he played couple more years
A legend is always legend truly
The greatest player of the cover drive in the history of the universe since the beginning of time.
Classic sanga god of coverdrive. 🇱🇰❤️
These are not boundaries, class class❤
As a left handed batsman I always idolised him and Chris Gayle. Two complete contrasting players but both of them are iconic
Technically a legend left handed batsman
