10 great cricketers who were terrible fielders

5 Glenn McGrath

Glenn McGrath

With a tally of 563 Test wickets and 381 one day international wickets, Australian fast bowler Glenn McGrath is one of the greatest to have ever played the game. However, in all other attributes of the game, he was a complete liability.

McGrath's batting was strictly that of a tailender while his fielding was another thorn in the flesh for the Australian team.

He was the worst fielder in the Australian side of his time, and one of his biggest failings was perhaps his inability to cover ground while fielding at the deep. Although he was a reliable catcher, there was not much else to be praised about his fielding.
