10 best South African fielders of all time 

#5 Faf du Plessis

Faf du Plessis

South African captain Faf du Plessis is one of the world's best fielders at the moment and among the many great fielders that the country has produced over the years, he is without a doubt one of the best. Other than being a superb athlete, he possesses the crucial ability of anticipation that separates the great fielders from the good ones and throughout his career, he has proven this ability time and again by taking stunning catches.

In Test matches, he usually fields at slips and his slip fielding is comparable to Mark Waugh's, one of the best fielders at the position in the last 25 years. In limited overs cricket, he fields within the circle at most times and it is quite difficult to get the ball past him for most batsmen.
