In 2005, Inside Sport and the Channel 9 Cricket Commentary Team selected the best six catches in one day internationals played in Australia since 1977. Who was the only overseas player in their selection?
Hint(23/3) 21:30: The Australians were Mark Waugh, Mark Taylor, Steve Waugh, Dean Jones & Andrew Symonds.
Further Hint(24/3) 17:00: It's a player from the sub-continent
Last Hint (24/3) 20:30: He's an Indian
CLOSING THIS ONE WHEN I GO TO BED.

The name you needed (and Rod had at a second attempt) was Rahul Dravid. It was a very sharp catch near the umpire at square leg. I'm for bed ... more tomorrow.

Not John Emburey.

Rod - now knowing the answer - has asked if he can transfer the point to someone else. No but I applaude the logic! That would be a Pandora's box!

Not Ravi Shastri.

utter stab in the dark, but Yuvraj Singh. Just because he is a good fielder...

hope im not too late...Ajay Jadeja

That's actually a very good guess based on his high fielding skills but it's not Singh.

Just in time but it's not Jadeja.
