Scoop and Dilscoop should be accepted.. the ramp is effectively the same shot also and shouldn't be a separate option

I believe the off drive should not be in the quiz. Although cover drive specifically says the position it is a term used for any off drive except the square drive. Also ramp is the same as scoop and there should be reverse ramp/scoop.

Technically an off drive is a shot played along the ground towards the mid off or long off fielding positions whereas a cover drive is a shot along the ground towards the cover or extra cover fielding positions
