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.
3. Kieron Pollard
Over the years, Kieron Pollard has been the man guarding the boundary ropes for the Mumbai Indians. His height, power, and swift moments have helped him to save valuable runs for the most successful team in the tournament. This year too, he has taken some good catches and saved many boundaries for the bowlers.
The best fielding from Pollard came against RR when he took an outstanding catch of Jos Buttler. Buttler was the only batsman who was hitting the ball from the middle of his bat and was looking extremely dangerous for the MI bowlers. But when he tried to clear the fence with Pollard guarding the boundary down the ground, the fielder grabbed the ball out of thin air and ensured that he held on to the catch.
Well, for a player in the final phase of his career, this was nothing short of spectacular. This catch is one of the best ones this season. Pollard, over the years, has created a reputation for being a safe fielder. And this has grown over the years tremendously.
Now, the batsmen don’t aim for the boundaries which are in his arc. Well, this is the safest way to clear the fence though. Pollard, for his brilliant efforts, has been ranked three in this list.
