Sharma to Jennings, no run, dropped at fourth slip! Squares up Jennings with a length delivery which seams across him, takes the outside edge and Rahane can't grab it diving in front of third slip

 

Drop Count : 1

We never learn. I can understand the deficiencies of our team in other aspects of the game in foreign shores. But catching!! it is inexcusable

Re edit your op and keep updating the drop catch list..

 

1st test - Jennings

Culprit - rahane, victim - ishanth..

 

Done. I will keep updating my OP to include batsman, bowler, culprit and runs cost. Will also attach relevant commentary from cricbuzz for description. In case I miss some of the action and fail to update, fellow ICFers can post in this thread and I will add the info in the OP.

Since that drop Jennings has added 20*(47) and been involved in partnerships worth 50 runs coming in 102 balls....still growing  . Besides the crucial runs it has further shielded the English middle order from the new ball and fresh quicks. All these important parameters (and perspectives) need to be taken into account while judging the cost of dropped catches. I am not going to blame only Rahane here, our entire unit is so poor that even if the ball falls in their palms they will find a way to drop.

India is at second last position in slip catching against Seamers..

In Sky Sports commentary discussion going on that India is doing slip catching practise using Rubber balls and wearing gloves 

 

Holding and Nasser correctly saying rubber ball catching involves different technique to cricket ball.

 

No wonder these guys have been horrible in slips catching cricket balls without gloves.

Sachin used to field at midoff because dravid and VVS were specialists at slip and as an Indian fan I never witnessed Sachin drop a single straightforward catch whenever he was asked to do his fielding duties at slip... :/

Mediocrity, unprofessionalism and chewtiyapa. 

 

Hallmarks of our new team.

There is count thread  by Gollum

Jennings gone . Runs cost 33, balls played after drop 83. After the drop he added 78 runs in partnerships with Cook and Root consuming roughly 30 overs. Conditions are perfect for batting now and English middle order will enjoy the older ball.

Would be better if batsman score can be tracked by whoever spots it as well. 

[Straight Drive]

Jennings was dropped when his score was 9. 

[Switchblade]
