No Rixon, no fielding?

[Kohli The King of Chase]

Pakistan looked like a top fielding side off late, but in this series they look like the Pakistan we knew for a decade.

How can a side go from good to bad in just one series?

Is it due to the fact that they haven't played on these dry grounds, or due to the Rixon factor?

Lazy, disinterested and disorganised in the field today so far.

Lazy, disinterested and disorganised in the field today so far.

Not just today, but this trend has been there since the start of the series. Absolutely atrocious fielding. Feels like they have forgotten how to field as if Rixon was controlling them through a joystick from the bleachers.

I'm disgusted at Amirs attitude towards fielding.. the catch Shoaib Malik dropped was only Amirs catch. He didn't bother going for it and waited for Malik to make the run. Pathetic attitude.

Finally a catch.

Didn't even try and raise his arms, never mind jump, for the boundary one too.

We need a tough, strict fielding coach otherwise the fielding goes back to square one.

Pakistan dont practice fielding after Rixon gone i think.When they have a captain with a big tummy, they are supposed to be lazy.

Dropped catches, a lack of effort, not diving when they shouldhave, not attempting catches - very ordinary display by Pakistan so far.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

They seem to have lost their energy and focus on the field.

 

[Shafi]

Nothing to do with that. Our team entirely depends on Fakhar and others just supportive here and there. This team can do wonder here and there but as too many holes. Our players are mentally weak and they feel nervous to face Australia.
We would probably nervous against Zimbabwe but the difference in strength is huge due to lack of top 6 players.

 

[Gabbar Singh]

Followed up by some great catches at latter end of innings.
