Brad Hodge's ability to drop and run is world class.

Unfortunately, so is his ability to fend at balls away from his body... :p
His specialist skill is to be able to cross the boundary ropes and still claim a catch.

Collingwood is extremely over-rated in this department IMO.

Hes fast, and he calls early, but he often over-rates his chances and seems to be out of his ground.

He's actually been run out 8 times in 85 ODI's - I'm not sure whether that's a high figure or not (probably not given that he bats in the lower middle when the mad scramble is on).

Of course, I'm unable to statistically determine the carnage he might be causing at the other end.
