Andrew Symonds is the best fielder in world cricket

HogInAHender · 14-12-2006, 09:48 PM

"Hands down"

Any questions?

Dravid · 15-12-2006, 12:26 AM

No but I got comments. After Gibbs.

Where did you get the name HogInAHender from?

andmark · 15-12-2006, 08:39 AM

I must say I think Paul Collingwood.

Nnanden · 15-12-2006, 08:47 AM

I reckon he is IMO. Can field anywhere and do it amazingly.

Tomm NCCC · 15-12-2006, 09:55 AM

Symonds is good, but Collingwood has taken some amazing catches. Usually dfying the laws of "Fyzzix"

PhoenixFire · 15-12-2006, 02:17 PM

As much as it pains me to say it, he is the best. He never drops them, rarely misses the stumps and stops everything.

While we're at it, here's a fielding XI. Obviously, you have to be decent with bat/ball too.

Stephen Fleming*, Herschelle Gibbs, Ricky Ponting, Paul Collingwood, Yuvraj Singh, Andrew Symonds, Mark Boucher, ....., ....., ....., .....

Reserves: Hayden, Hussey, DeVilliers, Bravo

Somebody help me finish that lineup ...

Brett Lee, Chris Cairns and Glenn McGrath. All of them very good bowlers and very solid outfielders. Equally you could get rid of one of the batsman and put Warne in there.

Lee for sure. Cairns has retired and McGrath botches too many in the outfield IMO.

Anyone else?

Freddie at slip is not too bad, would add to your bowling

Perm · 15-12-2006, 05:06 PM

My bad about Chris Cairns, totally forgot he had retired. Flintoff is a very capable slipper and his outfielding is pretty good aswell.

Dunno about 'hands down'..a couple are close, but I have to agree with that.
