3. Herschelle Gibbs (South Africa)
Steve Waugh’s taunt may have haunted him for a long time, but there is no denying the fact that Herschelle Gibbs is one of the best fieldsmen around in ODI cricket. In fact, in his favourite position at backward point, he was often touted as the next Jonty Rhodes, who had made that particular outpost his own at the height of his prowess.
Gibbs doesn’t quite possess the fluid grace of his illustrious predecessor, but he is no slouch on the field. He takes catches with the perfect grip, though his habit of prematurely celebrating a catch has backfired at the most inopportune of times (the 1999 World Cup comes to mind).
Nevertheless, with the fire and attitude that the tonsured batsman brings to the fielding aspect of the game, he has cemented his place among the all-time greats of that art.
