Mark Waugh the best slip fielder (and catcher) off all time IMO. Now THAT was an incredible cordon.

I didn't start following cricket until around the 2005 Ashes (they are my earliest memories of cricket) but I have read and watched lots of cricket from before then, so I know how truly great this cordon really was.
