Is Andrew Symonds the best fielder we've ever seen?

[Julian87]

Slater almost certainly the greatest fullback ever, despite his penchant for kicking defenseless players in the head.

Nope.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Nope.

Nice.

The ATG Teams General arguing/discussing thread

Can anyone link anything to the time when MWaugh became an ODI opener, and why it happened? https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/16445/scorecard/64419/new-zealand-vs-australia-1st-odi-australia-tour-of-new-zealand-1992-93 This is the series where it first happened. Hit two 50s in a row. Can't...

[Line and Length]

Impressive

 

[Migara]

Impressive but no.

 

[cnerd123]

hard to think of a fielder that's clearly better than Jadeja tbf. In the same league as him, sure. But better? Nah.

 

[Daemon]

lol tbh as a best of highlights package that's pretty tame. But he judges them gets into excellent positions very very quickly so rarely has those ridiculous looking diving catches.

 

[OverratedSanity]

The video doesnt even have some of his more crazy outfield efforts in other formats like that one in the recent test series in NZ

I can think of 2 or 3 from one team alone

Is it UAE?

Yeah Mahanama was probably better but dont think Dilshan was

 

[honestbharani]

Guys, give TJB a break. He is obviously talking about Raina.


And yeah, the package was a ICC one and was posted by the Official ICC handle, so they only had clips from ICC tournaments. Not even close to Jaddu's best work, those. Like most of those wont even make his top 10 list.

@7:02 Matthew Sinclair level outfield catch

 

[Daemon]

Yeah no wonder it looked tame.

I have him up there with Jordan in overall fielding for LOs (Jordan the better catcher but Jadeja's arm is better). I'd prefer Stokes for Tests because of the slip catching.

Classic "yes bhenchod" from Kohli at 0:47

@7:02 Matthew Sinclair level outfield catch

Damn, if we catch that well we are winning in Australia in the tests.

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

You couldn't even win that test though.

 

[OverratedSanity]

You had Wagner so you cheated
