Who do you guys reckon is the worlds best allround feildsman?.

I'll go for Symonds , not only is he extremely quick & in possesion of a bullet arm , he is just as good in the circle , or at gully & under the helmet as he shows for Queensland.

For his size, Jacob Oram is unbelievable..he pulled off a couple of rippers against Pakistan at Queenstown the other day.
But thats not surprising considering he used to be an NZ U19 football keeper.

Chris Harris used to be in the top 3 IMO, his fielding in the VB Series a few years back was world class but since then its fallen away probably due to his poor form with bat & ball.

Yeah, that was a great snare by Ponting.

A couple of years ago I thought Ponting, Rhodes & Harris were the best along with Gibbs.

Reminder, we do have fielders in England.

Paul Collingwood being the pick, and Hussain and Thorpe also very good.

Amazingly enough, Rikki Clarke is the best point/gulley fielder in the English set-up by a military mile.

Yes Clarke is excellent and Flintoff is a good catcher and outfielder in particular. Seeing as English players were overlooked, I voted for other.

I think Ponting maybe stands out over everyone but not quite in the way Jonty did. Also I saw him make a couple of howlers of routine stops recently which wasn't attractive.
