Rahul Dravid
Indian Cricketer
One of the great joys of being a slip fielder who takes a catch is you are able to contribute to the bowler's success. Yes, you are putting yourself in the firing line if you stuff it up, but you must want to be in that position to make a difference, and recognise sometimes that you might make mistakes. There are no easy catches in the slips.

Quote examples
Harbhajan Singh
Indian Athlete
The batsman does not always need to create big hits. He can hit a boundary, then pick up some singles and still gets nine runs. To avoid that, I need to plan in a way where he must look to hit wherever there is a fielder. That is what is called 'bowling to the field.

Quote examples
Ted Williams
American Athlete
There has always been a saying in baseball that you can't make a hitter, but I think you can improve a hitter. More than you can improve a fielder. More mistakes are made hitting than in any other part of the game.

Quote examples
Mohammad Amir
Pakistani Athlete
At the end of the day, nobody drops a catch on purpose, and even the fielder gets frustrated. As a bowler, when a few catches are dropped, yeah, that is frustrating. But I think, ultimately, it's part of the game.

Quote examples
MS Dhoni
Indian Athlete
You need more individuals who can do more than one job in the field. Especially if all of them are good fielders and if they can contribute with bat and ball if needed. Just adds to the strength of the side.

Quote examples
Ravindra Jadeja
We have to keep in mind things like having five fielders inside the circle always. We have to decide who has to be inside, who has to bowl to which batsman and what the situation is.

British Athlete
I feel, as a captain, that when you face a batsman who plays spin well you feel as if you are a fielder short.

If I'm going to wind up playing left, I want to be the best left fielder in the game. I'll work to be that.

I was a good fielder in the gully in my college days. But in the outfield, I was not such a good fielder.
