KL Rahul is a damn good slip fielder

[Lannister]

Slip fielding is in safe hands. Just sit back and enjoy the procession. 

 

We should be damn lucky to be seeing such an esteemed cricketer in our lifetime. 

 

Jai Karnataka.

Agree about fielding part, but what the ....

 

Good that he didn't say that "i-am-not-sure" BS after taking close catch. Dhawan did that and umpire's soft signal probably was not out on basis of that.

[The Dark Horse]

He acts just like Pandya/Kohli after taking a catch though..

[Lannister]

3 in the first innings and 2 more in the second.

He has learned the art of how to stay in the team.

[RAZPOR]

yep ,him+rahane in slips can probably solve many issues

[Austin 3:!6]

Just need to learn batting...especially with Shaw breathing on his neck

Better than ugly le panga thigh fives.

Take a bow champion 

A total of 7 catches so far in the match. Why didn't the management identify his slip catching skills before? Kohli was busy socializing with Dhawan in the slip cordon.

Ridiculous to see Kohli standing in the slips and not Rahane.

He keeps in IPL, thinks like a wicket-keeper

[Stan AF]

Every time the ball seems to search him and land in his palms.

 

 

7 catches is a Man of the match level performance

[Sandeep99]

He can stay in the team just for his fielding!! Kidding... damn we unearthed a perfect test match opener prototype... see off the new ball, score some runs and hold onto slip catches...

But he caught aggressively the way he catches anushka's shopping bags thrown at him at harrods!! 

 

So let him be. Also it is entertaining to have him on screen all the time. He is like our own daffy duck. His anger is our happiness! 

[jusarrived]

Being a keeper you would expect him to be a safe at slips , needs to score runs . Catching is just a bonus .

Rahul & rahane
