U either are a good slip fielder or not.Dhawan and kohli are not calm enough and too eccentric to stand at slips.we have to look at rahane,rohit,ashwin,vijay,pujara

That is why Dravid, Jayawardhane etc. have been so good.

And this is why we need sehwag. At the moment dhawan isnt making more runs than veeru but with veeru we have the best slip fielder india has to offer and 10ish overs of part time spin per innings. Sent from my GT-S5830D using Tapatalk 2

India have never been good fielders or athletes, Indians don;t enjoy fielding, you need to enjoy it, like the Aussies, SA, NZ etc

[undisputed chap]

I would take a specialist slip feilder even if it means playing potentially with 10 men.

After all the talk of phasing our slow senior fielders to get better fielding, our catching is as bad as the previous seniors. The only good thing this generation is that they are better ground fielders.
