Swivel across

Parnell to Dhoni, FOUR!!, What a way to break the shackles!! short of length delivery and Dhoni swivels across and pulls it to backward square leg, the fielder at the deep could do nothing other than watch it race away to the boundary

Could you please explain to me the emboldened parts?

It's describing the way the player moves. I guess it means he moves from one side of the pitch to the other ("across") and at the same time he spins round ("swivels").
