I mean, our greatest ever cricketer had a habit of dropping sitters. And he's one of the better ones.
this. Chahal is the worst fielder in international cricket
*leg spin bowlers, based on this thread.
Tbf on Chahal, either he's improved out of sight in recent times, or he just had an abnormally good day out in the field in the last T20 game... thought he fielded very well.
Sodhi's not the worst catcher in the world albeit missing a couple of easy ones this series, but jeez he's one slow mover, especially in getting down.
He always tries and is pretty fast across the turf. But in terms of fielding skills that matter - like anticipation, strength and accuracy of throws, ability to catch etc. he is way below par. Like way way below par. There is a reason when we play KulCha, Bumrah and Bhuvi we were basically playing with 4 rabbits with the bat and in the field as far as LO cricket goes.
Bhuvi's bordering on genuine bowling all-rounder/test #8 territory isn't he? Averages 22 in test with a few 50's and has fc hundreds and a fc+test average of 27.
Yeah, he is a decent #8 at his best but he has not been at his best for a few years now, so I said a passable tailend bat. Both him and Kuldeep are good #9s who can be passable #8s in tests. But their fielding is usually shockingly shoddy.
think he was our third best test batsman on the last tour of South Africa when de Villiers was still active
Who? Akram?
Miandad, obviously.
sodhi's parents were born on the wrong side of punjab
