the square drive is actually a horizontal bat shot , with identical arm mechanics to that of the square cut. The difference between the cut and the square drive is the height of the ball at contact: the cut is played to a ball bouncing waist high or above with the batsman standing tall, whereas the square drive is played to a wide ball of shin height with the batsman bending his knees and crouching low to make contact.

played to the short pitch or good length delivery

typically placed the ball to the backward point and Cover position
