Rahul Dravid has wore many hats for the Indian cricket team and all successfully. He has been a run scoring machine, tormented the opposition on his own and also achieved a lot of success as a captain. Veteran India spinner Harbhajan Singh, however, introduced his incredible fielding ability in a video he shared on Twitter.
As a captain Rahul Dravid, captained India for 79 ODIs between 2000 to 2007. He also led the national team to the 2007 World Cup, where the side had a tour to forget. Under the captaincy of Dravid, India won 42 matches in the ODI format and lost 33, with his run in Test format not so great as a captain.
Harbhajan Singh: Outstanding catcher Rahul Dravid
Sharing a compilation of videos, Harbhajan Singh, once a regular teammate of Dravid called him an ‘outstanding catcher’. Commentator Aakash Chopra was also quick to join the appreciation post as he retweeted the video and commented, “Agree 100%. Wonderful hands. I also kept telling Jam to field at short-leg….but he wouldn’t come in. Too modest to admit that he was indeed the best in the playing XI at that position”.
