The Mumbai Indians had an excellent season on field last season though they were unable to make it to the playoffs. They dropped only 12 catches and were very efficient and energetic on the field. Their best fielders were the Pandya brothers and skipper Rohit Sharma, although Ishan Kishan could have been better behind the stumps.

They have signed Proteas keeper Quinton De Kock to remedy that. He's one of the best when it comes to taking catches behind the stumps and will add to the side's fielding strength.


Delhi Capitals

Rating: 8.5/10

Boult took this stunner to win the Vivo Perfect Catch of the Season

The Delhi Capitals topped the fielding charts last season to everyone's surprise. They were effective on the field and Trent Boult's catch to dismiss Virat Kohli is simply unforgettable. They dropped just 10 catches and their ground fielding wasn't bad as well.

They have acquired Shikhar Dhawan, and their young Indian players are very good fielders themselves. They failed with the bat and ball early on last season and will want to remedy that.
