In what can be termed as the most unique batting style, Australian Batsman George Bailey was seen batting with his face towards the 'wicket'. To add to the uniqueness, the batsman took a 360-degree turn to bat the incoming ball. The absurd batting style happened on the first day of the seventh Sheffield Shield match between Tasmania and Victoria in Hobart. It was during the 25th over of the Tasmanian innings, that Bailey took a very unique style.
