Opener Yashasvi Jaiswal: Former India cricketer Mohammad Kaif has weighed in on finger taping after a costly dropped catch in the ongoing Test series against England. According to Kaif, excessive taping could be doing more harm than good — dulling a fielder’s natural grip.
India’s catching has been a major concern in the series. The hosts spilled as many as eight chances in the series opener which proved costly as they lost the match by 5 wickets.
Ollie Pope was dropped on 60 and went on to make 106. Similarly, Ben Duckett got a lifeline on 15 and scored 62. Also, in the third Test, KL Rahul dropped Jamie Smith at second slip and the batter went on to score 51 also stitching 87-run ninth wicket stand with Brydon Crase (56) in the first innings.
