Meanwhile, Hyderabad skipper Adam Gilchrist also admits that fielding has spurred the team. “It was one of the areas we needed to improve on since last season. Mike Young (fielding coach) has put in a lot of effort and it’s a huge difference this year,” he says.
Hyderabad aren’t the only team who felt the need of a fielding coach. Jonty Rhodes, one of all time greats when it comes to fielding, is associated with Mumbai Indians. With so much effort going into the craft, brilliant run-outs and blinders should not be an uncommon sight.
