I should add a fellow who toured here in the early 80s, who I recall being quite a poor fielder. Dlip Doshi. I think he was either an off psinner or a SLA bowler. Played a few tests here iirc.
Again though, I don't think he was like Panesar bad, just not particularly great.

Yeah, was alright under the lid though. Say he was similar to a Langer or a Jaques as a fielder.
The worst fieldsman I have ever seen was David Hourn (David Hourn | Australia Cricket | Cricket Players and Officials | ESPN Cricinfo)
Devoid of anthleticism and almost clinically blind, he used to get a round of applause from team-mates for making the most straight-forward of stops
For a guy that was such an outstanding bowler (IIRC, Ian Chappell rated him the best spinner in Oz), his incompetence in every other aspect of the game was unbelievable

It makes you wonder you you can screw up that badly so many times in a single match... atrocious. This one's pretty amusing too

Monty did something similar against India... but it was even more hilarious because not only did he miss it completely, he tried to protect his head

That is truely amazing. Laughed myself almost to tears.
Felt sorry for Zaheer in the earlier clip though.
Remember Kevin Pietersen being absolutely awful in his first couple of series and Darren Bravo has only now progressed beyond terrible. The worst of recent vintage though has to be Kaman Akmal.

That's ridiculous. Imagine being the bowler!
