Dasgupta, Inzamam, Bevan?, Laxman, are far from poor fielders.

Inzi may not be a good mover, but he's a very good slip fielder, as is Laxman.

Michael Bevan was very very good, Dasgupta, though he had a bad series or two with the gloves, is far from a poor keeper nowadays...

Laxman is a good catcher in slips too

Pietersen is an excellent fielder.

Pup Clarke · 05-02-2007, 02:51 AM

Jimmy, definetly. Two metre Peter, he's dropped one catch by my count, and has stopped alot more than he's let through.

mmm, Fulton's ground fielding and throwing has been excellent at times. Attacks the ball well and gets it in quickly especially for an ultra-tall bloke

The funny thing is, before this series, Franklin had a reputation as having one of the safest pair of hands in the team

Perm · 05-02-2007, 03:06 AM

Muralitharan, he's pretty bad. Add all of the Indian seamers to that list aswell,
