Haddin and Kieswetter are nowhere near the best glovemen in the world.

James Foster is rediculously good behind the stumps!

I agree that Haddin is nowhere near.
Keiswetter is natually VEERY good! And is still learning and developing behind the stumps!
When he is on form he's brilliant - so just needs to learn to be more consistent.

Foster however is as good as anyone!

Yeah Haddin's average and Kieswetter, at this very moment, is as well. Nothing more.
To talk about them in the same vein as the best of the best is a bit of a joke really.

Just to add one of the main reason's Kieswetter left SA for England was because he was told by his province that his glovework wasn't up to scratch.

petehosk · « **Reply #36 on:** December 21, 2009, 05:03:47 PM »

And now SA want him to take over from Boucher!!!!
So he has obviously improved!???

peplow · « **Reply #37 on:** December 21, 2009, 05:28:06 PM »

Who do we think he's gonna play fpr then??

(pete wack up some ayrtek pics!! ona another topic

Well, Graham Smith was asking him to consider going back to SA. But he is not interested and has voiced his interest and desire to play for England - his Dad is African but his Mum is Scottish, so he qualifies to play for England from February 2010.
He has also been fast-tracked into the England performance squad. So I suspect that in one form or another, he will be playing for England pretty soon!

Now that would be an interesting accent! scottish combined with south african.

peplow · « **Reply #40 on:** December 21, 2009, 05:42:34 PM »

good, think he looks very decent! Yet another south african we'll have in!

Not being funny, but however good Kieswetter is, South Africa have a brilliant reserve wicketkeeper in Heino Kuhn

petehosk · « **Reply #42 on:** December 21, 2009, 06:03:38 PM »

Good - so they don't need him then!

He is a really exciting batsman so looking forward to seeing him at international level and see if he steps up to the mark!
Still dont think his glove work isn't up to the standard of Foster or other top glovemen though TBH!!!

Foster- the ball just melts in to the gloves, a natural.

jack Russell the best I have seen

No doubt Kieswetter will be playing for England, rightly or wrongly. I personally feel Davies is a better shout for the ODI side but I don't make those decisions.
Just in the context of purely being a gloveman Kieswetter is absolutely nowhere near world class.
