What ever happend to the Pakistan keeper who refused to be bribed he looked decent and unorthodox.

Haider? The chap who tried to claim asylum over here as he was being threatened? He was alright, did a good job and batted well in the couple of tests he played. That who you mean Dave?

Surely it would make sense to play a specialist keeping in 20/20. The majority of the runs are scored by the top 5 batsman anyway. Every dropped catch or byes given in a 20/20 make a huge difference in the outcome of the game.

Haddin is classed as a specialist keeper is'nt he, look at the chance he dropped of Gayle, regulation supposedly.

Bruce French, Matt Priors mentor reckons the 22 year old Buttler has the best hands of any of Englands emerging glovemen.

Jack Russell last week went for James Foster.

Is'nt it great to discuss keeping and keepers.

We could do a team of wicket keepers based on ability first with the gloves on, mine would be, Knott, Taylor, Russell, Andrew,Stewart, Bari, Engineer, Kirmani, Marsh, Boucher and Foster :)
