Ravindra Jadeja, probably best fielder in world cricket: Gambhir
Mumbai/UNI: Former India opener Gautam Gambhir believes that all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja, probably is the best fielder going around at the moment in the world cricket.
Speaking on Star Sports show, Cricket Connected, Gambhir explained why Jadeja is the best fielder in world cricket.
"I think, in world cricket, there is no better fielder than Jadeja, an overall fielder. Maybe he doesn't field at slip and gully, but no one is better than him in throwing. "No one covers the outfield like him. Put him at point or cover, you can get him to field anywhere,' said Gambhir.
'No one has a safer pair of hands than him. Ravindra Jadeja, probably is the best fielder in world cricket," he added.
Gambhir isn’t the first former cricketer to be impressed by Jadeja’ fielding.
Jonty Rhodes, the former Proteas cricketer, who is widely considered the best fielder of all time, had also rated Jadeja among the best fielders in the world, saying the Indian all-rounder has great commitment and anticipation skill.
'Jaddu (Jadeja) has taken some fantastic catches. The key is he is very committed. He is very good at anticipating the ball also,' Rhodes had told Suresh Raina during an Instagram Live chat last month.
