Mohammad Kaif Said That India Has Improved A Lot In Fielding:
The Indian Revolution in the fielding side brought by a former batsman Mohammad Kaif along with Yuvraj Singh. The pair is well known for their impressive fields, their diving catches, and their short runs in addition to playing many memorable partnerships, including the 2003 Natwest Series Finale. In a Youtube interview, Kaif said India has progressed a lot in the field over the years, but a “complete package” in fielding is still lacking.
“A strong batsman is a full pack. He can play cut, drag, bounce, hit the six … He can play a… Fielding is the same. Likewise, when you know how to slide, throw directly to the wickets, run hard, keep the ball with your hands in the correct manner – if all this is done right, you ‘re a complete fielder, “said Kaif.
“By our fielding, I and Yuvraj made our names. In the Indian cricket team, you will now find some good fieldmen. It has got a lot better. But nobody could be a complete fielding system. A player who is able to catch slips, catch a short leg, play well in the package is lacking, “he added.
AB de Villiers Was A Complete Fielder:
Kaif also added that Ravindra Jadeja has improved considerably over the years as a fielder. “But Ravindra Jadeja is really good, as he gets older he improves in the field. We have to work in slip fielding.
He also applauded Indian fast bowlers for their progress in fielding. “Our fast bowlers have improved in fielding, yet Bumrah, Shami, Ishant. Even strong fielders are Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma. We’ve changed a lot, therefore, but I still feel that there’s not a full package of the team, “he added.
Kaif, named AB de Villiers the legend of South Africa, was asked if there was such a complete package apart from him and Yuvraj. “AB de Villiers was a full-blown man. He was a bullet. He was a missile. He may hold wickets, drop, take sensational catches, take catches. I’ve been playing RCB with him. He was at the highest standard of preparation and quality.
