Ranking top 10 fielders in IPL history

1. AB de Villiers

Often being termed as a ‘Superman’ there’s rarely anything left which ABD cannot perform onto the field. Whether it’s about donning the gloves or procuring some unpalatable grabs as a slip fielder, De Villiers is a bona fide master when it comes to fielding. 

His adaptability to take field anywhere allows him to become a gun fielder who can take a shy at the stumps from anywhere. His bullseye throw is the most salient feature of his fielding which has attained some of the most irrational run-outs. For RCB fans, it’s always an added delight to watch the duo of Kohli and ABD guarding the business ends together. All in all, one can unarguably call him as one of the most veritable fielders currently playing the game.

Overall just like his rank in this list, De Villiers is also on the top for taking the most number of catches (103) in the IPL. And in terms of his best catch then there’s a no brainer when he had caught Alex Hales in the IPL 2018. Call it ABD becoming a Superman or Spiderman, the catch is arguably the greatest in IPL’s history.
