IPL 2020: Ranking top 10 fielders of the tournament
Decent fielding can save around 10-20 runs, making it a crucial aspect of the game.
4. Jofra Archer
Jofra Archer came into the limelight because of his incredible bowling and fielding efforts. This year, the Royals have benefitted heavily because of his sheer pace and athleticism. He is also a contender for the player of the season award! Apart from his bowling and fielding, he has smacked few balls out of the parks too!
During RR’s match against MI, Archer showcased his top-class fielding skills by pulling off a one-handed blinder to send back MI’s star batsman Ishan Kishan. This occurred during the 11th over of the game when Kartik Tyagi bowled a short delivery and Ishan Kishan slashed a cut. But Jofra misjudged it initially and somehow, he managed to take the catch. This catch is one of the best of the tournament so far.
Apart from taking screamers at the boundary ropes, Jofra has also saved many runs with his superb fielding for the Royals. His sheer brilliance with the ball combined with his fielding skills has made him one of the most important players of the Rajasthan-based franchise.
However, he had a bad day in the outfield against CSK because of which he is ranked fourth in this list. But his skills are priceless, and he is counted as one of the best fielders of the game.
