The worst/easiest dropped catch ever......?

[DHONI183]

Well, picking the best and worst can be a tricky job but I feel I have the worst dropped catch ever......

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q_pWgTz04mI

Well,..... the funniest ever at least)!

Sohail Tanvir!

I think the grounds-men at Pallekele have marked the place with red where he was standing so that nobody ever forgets the moment in future.

Alan Wilkins immediately used the opportunity to term it as "the drop of the tournament".

Any other nominations?

kami bhai zindabad always the number one ^^

 

[Bhaijaan]

Sohail Tanvir's drop recently in T20 world cup was quite shocking.



Just checked the OP, you mentioned the same. HAHA, drop of the decade.

 

[Ismailtoca]

The hussey drop was actually difficult with the sun in the eyes

he was wearing shades

 

[GujjarSher]

If we're including wicketkeepers then Kamran Akmal is probably #1-#10.

 

[adnanulhaq97]

Kamran Akmal and thats it

 

[90MPH]

Gibbs in 1999.

Still that drop bewilders me.

 

[AZ]

I blame the glasses. :moakram

 

[Sidcricfan]

Recently in WT20, Tanvir dropped what I might call the easiest catch ever. And he was later giving the excuse of the light!

EDIT : Just saw the OP!

 

[Canistani Hero]

easily

 

[Eht]

Any one remember Inzamam dropping a dolly at Mid on. The batsman was Philo Wallace and he scored a brisk 70 odd to knock out pakistan in 1998 Champions trophy.

 

[Eht]

Aamir Sohail dropped an easy caught & bowled offered by Desmond Haynes in 1992 WC Pool match Vs West Indies

 

[Gotham Cronie]

Umar Amin had a shocker of a drop in the AUS series.

 

[Cricketismylife]

Sohail Tanveer is right up there but master of this art is Kami.

 

[Executioner]

kami worse than tanvir? dream on dudes

tanveer makes my grandmother look more agile and athletic

This is not the first time Sooohail tanvir have dropped a simple catch. he did similar thing when he was new in t20 2007 tournament. Can someone please find a video of him and share it with us.

Yeah, Sohail Tanvir dropped Sanath Jayasuriya and then the good thing was that he bowled the next over and bowled him the very first delivery.

 

[mahad193]

I remember Mohammad Yousuf dropping an absolute dolly of a catch in the Oval test against England a couple of years ago. It was exactly like that Sohal Tanvir drop in the OP. I can't find the clip of it anywhere though, don't know if anyone else remembers it?

 

[DRS]

Yes. His bowling action got him the wicket of Sannath. I remember he got absolutely stunned

 

[leatherface58]

Kamran Akmal is the king of this thread. No one comes close.

[asma_cricfan]

In sohail defence, he has no gloves but what about kamran dropping numerous dollies with wearing gloves. No one come near kamran when dropping catches.

I remember watching this live.

Hafeez also dropped a sitter recently that went straight up in the air - do you remember which game it was?

This is one of the worst I have seen. It was a dolly and the wicket keeper with the gloves should take this 10 times out of 10.

 

[moghul]

I remember Mohd Yousuf dropping a dolly, my granny would have caught with one hand.

*** hahaha I cannot believe he dropped that one.

The best bit is Chandimal's reaction ) )

 

[Sher Khan]

That Dickwella drop is shocking. I remember Salman Butt dropping a very straightforward chance at short leg. He juggled it atleast 8 times and still dropped it. It was just unbelievable.

 

[pakistani pride]

Razzaq dropping tendulker in 2003 wc...

Is that Butt?

 

[Abdullah719]

Is that Butt?

Yes

And the bowler's Asif...

 

[DeadBall]

Yes

And the bowler's Asif...

Figures.

 

[Sher Khan]

That dropped catch video even makes you think how hard it must have been for Butt to try and make that catch look hard &#55357;&#56859;

That looked like he purposefully juggled and dropped the catch...

Mike Gatting dropping a simple bat-pad and then blaming the sun. Too funny.

Asif and butt..match fixing at its best...

 

[ManFan]

Asif and butt..match fixing at its best...

Asif was subtle like John Dillinger.

Butt was a novice like a naughty schoolboy.

 

[ManFan]

The umpires' face is just supreme. And Asif reminds me of Voldemort.

Hilarious. The ball wasn't even at an angle where the sun could have gotten into his eyes.

Best Dropped catch ever.

 

[Saj]

The one in the Champions Trophy by Thisara versus Sri Lanka was awful.

It was almost in slow motion - really poor effort.

 

[azimiqbal]

Abdul Razak dropping tendulkar , in 2003, was a dolly!!! Cost us the game

Too good. This is what Malik, Virat, Yuvraj were laughing about post CT final.

 

[ManFan]

Abdul Razak dropping tendulkar , in 2003, was a dolly!!! Cost us the game

He was lucky to get fingertips to it and stop a certain boundary. It was too high to catch.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Two drops by Azharudding in SA two of the simplest chances ever seen. In the same match in the space of few overs. By Azhar standard he would catch even in sleep. At that time we knew nothing about March fixing.
