Pakistan fielding during the ICC World Cup 2019

It's not just the catching, though. The ground fielding was shocking too.
 
Solution to PAK fielding problems

We should implement a rule that
'The players who drop more than 1 catch depending on its simplicity shall be charged a percentage of their match fees..'

Maybe this way they will start fielding with more determination..

No one drops a catch deliberately, its a function of fitness and ability to handle pressure. Only solution is to practice and have the right fielders in the right positions.

Agreed brother but the way these guys are dropping easy catches which any child can catch in my opinion we should hit them at their pockets which will bring them to their senses..

And that too for multiple chances provided

No it wasn't. The ground fielding for the most part especially at the start was spot on. Anyone that watched the game at the ground would tell you that. They put on all of pressure early on with good fielding. The dropped catches weren't all that easy although there were couple of fours that could have been saved but this was when the match was all over for the South Africans. I was pretty impressed with most of the fielding yesterday, there was a massive improvement, there was plenty of energy in the field which has been lacking throughout the tournament.
 
Ground fielding was great, but we really need to hold onto our catches if we are to win the next 3 games.
 
When the ball is in the air and standing underneath is a Pakistan fielder, this is what I say at home in Punjabi, "Thehro! Halley pharrheya nayi gya (Hold on! It hasn´t been caught yet)!"

And this I´m afraid sums up the torture that this team´s fans have to go through in their daily lives.
 
The cure for pak missing catches is psychological!
Someone should tell the pak players to imagine the ball is a $100 bill, they will never drop a catch again!
 
Fielding has never been our strongest suite in fact have cost us matches more often than not. To beat this kiwis team today and to have any sort of chance of reaching the semis our fielding really has to be a top notch.
 
I really hope they won't drop catches off Wahab's bowling. They have already dropped 7 catches off his bowling
 
Quite a few fumbles and potentially missed run out chances today in the match vs Afghanistan.
 
Finally good catch by Mohammad Amir vs Afghanistan - NZ game was a nightmare for him
 
Drop by Mohammad Hafeez - been below par all through World Cup

Also earlier, Haris Sohail dropped one in slips - regulation stuff
 
Guys letting guard down as tournament ends
They were just as bad against SA.

It’s not that they haven’t had experience fielding in England before.

Things have just gone haywire since Rixon left; there’s a direct correlation.
