Dravid Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 why the *** is it kumble? i have never seen him pull of blinders... that position requires quick refelxes which i doubt jumbo at this age has anymore.. surely, we can get a better fielder there? he was misfielding there day 2 of irani too... I think fielding wise he is not that good, people get on ganguly, because the way he runs around in the outfeild and crap... but never anyone says anything about kumble.. Team india has done a nice job of hiding him, esp. from u guys:-D Link to comment
Ram Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Actually, I have rarely seen him drop catches. He's made a lot of decent stops and taken a few good catches too. Link to comment
Dravid Posted September 25, 2008 Author Share Posted September 25, 2008 true.. but ever seen him diving away? aus/sa players give it a try, get em sometimes, and dont sometime...but atleast they try kumble will catch ones that are hit straight to him.. otherwise wont even try.. just jump up late Link to comment

Dravid is at slips, so is Lax and Sachin. Dhoni keeps. That leaves us with Gambhir, Sehwag and Kumble. I suppose Kumble takes that spot before others, so that he doesnt have to run. Link to comment
Cricketics Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 btw Dravid, i am not sure if if you watched yesterday's play, on the contrary, he did dive a bit and saved a a boundry or two here n there. Link to comment
Dravid Posted September 25, 2008 Author Share Posted September 25, 2008 i watched some of it, and he had misfield twice :D also its not just about catches.. its also about stopping runs by diving and also chasing down edges b4 they cross the boundary Link to comment

Ram Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Now we know why Kumble is always the first to turn up at the ground in the morning. :D Link to comment
diegovegaz Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 if there is only 1 slip, i.e. dravid, sehwag can be a good gully but he is a point feilder as well if kaif is in the 11, sehwag should have no problem standing in the gully gambhir wouldn't be a bad choice either Link to comment
