(Photo Source: Getty Images) Top 10 Worst Fielders in Cricket: In the history of cricket, many great players have reached the pinnacle of greatness by scoring runs and wickets. However, there are some cricketers who have made shameful records in their name due to laziness and poor fielding. All of them have performed their best in batting and bowling for their country but have performed very poorly in fielding. In this article, we will tell the names of those 10 cricketers of the world who are very bad fielders- 10. Sourav Ganguly Sourav Ganguly. (Photo by Soumitra Ghosh/Hindustan Times via Getty Images) Former Indian captain and one of the opening batsmen Sourav Ganguly may have won matches for the team with the bat, but when it came to fielding, he was a liability on the team. Ganguly was a bad catcher and his dive was very awkward. 9. Lasith Malinga Sri Lanka’s Lasith Malinga. (Photo by Saeed KHAN / AFP) Former Sri Lankan fast bowler Lasith Malinga, famously known as the Yorker King, is at the top in bowling. But when it comes to fielding, he is in the list of very bad fielders. Malinga used to make mistakes in judging the direction of the ball. If he was not a good bowler, he would probably not have got any place in the team. 8. Shoaib Akhtar Shoaib Akhtar (Photo by Mike Hewitt/Getty Images) One of the fastest bowlers in the world, Pakistan’s Shoaib Akhtar used to scare the best batsmen with his fast bowling. However, he used to be a lazy player when it came to running behind the ball to stop a boundary. 7. Javagal Srinath Javagal Srinath. (Photo by Ross Setford/Getty Images) Javagal Srinath was one of the best fast bowlers in the world for more than a decade. He was also one of India’s greatest bowlers, but there is no doubt that he was a poor fielder. Batsmen would often take two runs when the ball came to him. 6. Morne Morkel Morne Morkel of South Africa. (Photo by Gareth Copley/Getty Images) South African players are usually known for their excellent fielding, however, fast bowler Morne Morkel was different. Morne, who has been one of the best fast bowlers in the world, was a liability for the team as a fielder. Due to his tall stature, he was neither able to save runs quickly nor take good catches. He often made easy catches difficult, which is a characteristic of a poor fielder. 5. Glenn McGrath Glenn McGrath and Ricky Ponting. (Photo Source: Getty Images) Former Australian fast bowler Glenn McGrath is one of the greatest players in the world. But his fielding was a big problem for the Australian team. He was the worst fielder from the Australian team of his time. 4. Arjuna Ranatunga Arjuna Ranatunga. (© Getty Images) Former Sri Lankan captain Arjuna Ranatunga is one of the…

5 Indian players who played only one T20 match in their international career
Such is the impact of T20 cricket that several players have retired from ODIs and Tests to focus solely on the 20-over format. Sachin Tendulkar and Virender Sehwag (Image Source: AFP) T20 cricket is slowly ruling the cricket world. Every country has domestic T20 leagues and this is because the shorter format is more thrilling and entertaining. Viewers get to see the thrill of a cricket match in just three and a half hours, which makes the shortest format even more attractive for fans. The impact of T20 cricket is such that many players have retired from ODIs and Tests to focus only on the 20-over format. However, on the other hand, there are players who were able to play only a few T20 matches in their career. Today we will talk about such Indian players whose first T20 match was also their last match. 5 Indian players who have played only one T20 match 1. Dinesh Mongia Chandigarh-born Dinesh Mongia played his only T20I match for India against South Africa in 2006. He played 57 ODIs and scored 38 runs in his T20I debut batting at No. 3. He faced 45 balls and helped India get close to the target of 127 runs before getting dismissed by Robin Peterson. However, Mongia was not selected for the 2007 T20 World Cup and his IPL career did not last long. This ended his T20 international career after just one match. 2. Murali Karthik Murali Kartik played his only T20 match against Australia in 2007. He made his place in the team by performing brilliantly in the domestic series. In his debut T20 match, he gave 27 runs in 4 overs, but could not take any wicket. India won that match, but Karthik could not make a comeback in the T20 team. Later he continued his career as a cricket expert and commentator. Murali Karthik also played for 4 IPL franchises during his career. 3. Karan Sharma Karn Sharma played his only T20 match against England in 2014. He was included in the national team after performing brilliantly for Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL. In his debut match, he took the important wicket of Joe Root by giving 28 runs in 4 overs. However, India lost that match by 3 runs and Karn Sharma never got a chance in the T20 team again. Currently, Karn’s leg spin has not been as effective, which has reduced his chances of returning to the Indian team. 4. Rahul Dravid Rahul Dravid, famously known as ‘The Wall’ of the Indian team, played his first and only T20 match in 2012. This match was against England, in which Rahul was included in the team due to injured players. Rahul Dravid silenced his critics by scoring 31 runs in this match and hitting three consecutive sixes. Despite his innings played at a strike rate of 147.61, India lost the match. Dravid’s T20 career ended after this one match. 5. Sachin Tendulkar Sachin Tendulkar, who is called the God of Cricket, also played only one T20 match in…

He played his last match in the final of the World Test Championship against Australia. Cheteshwar Pujara has been playing in the England County Championship for some time now and has left his mark here too.
