LA Carseldine st Gilchrist b Vaas 8

IPL match Deccan vs Rajasthan 11 May 2009

Takes guts for a keeper to stand up to a fast bowler.
Did Bari, Moin Khan, Latif, Akmal, etc. ever do it?

[Best_Bacha]

Vaas is a spinner these days

[Mohsin]

Say what now?

Sangakarra's been standing upto Vaas for donkey's years now.

If u wanna talk about guts, think about Dhoni when he stood upto Kumble!

[Da Best]

Believe you me. It's no walk in the park when your standing up to the stumps when a fast bowler is bowling. I've been playing with the tape ball for 2 weeks now and it's seriously HARD to do it.

[invincible]

Gilly's stumping was down to the batsman's lack of awareness. If you want to talk about keeping skills when standing upto a medium fast bowler -- take a look at this:

Akmal stood up to Akhtar, beat that..lol..no he did stand up to Arafat and even Afridi

[Khabri420]

Vaas bowls slower than afridi

I think Gilly stood up to Mcgrath and Clark as well a few years ago... not sure though.

[salman24]

Boucher used to stand up to Pollock and Klusener

Thats gotta be worth of a "Citibank fading former fast bowler moment of failure" award for Vaas?

You are losing the mission here. Pride is getting in the way.

[Amjid Javed]

Vass is miltary medium at best, Gilly has probably kept to spinners who bowl quicker then Vass does right now.

[Savak]

Alec Stewart stood up to craig white when he was bowling around 85-89 mph. Beat that.

Modi says you are hired as the main presenter for the next edition! He also offers a seat next to him which would guarantee atleast 1 hour of TV coverage in a 4 hour cricket match

[Omar Malik]

Some good examples given here! lol

[DHONI183]

It has been done in the past with bowlers such as Vaas and Pollock. This one was, however, not really a gem. Once you see the dismissal or read its commentary you will know what I mean here.

[shahzadddd]

In the 2007 wc in the windies (http://content.cricinfo.com/ci/conte...ry/288410.html) , Sangakkara stumped Lara off Vaas' bowling.

It takes some skill to do that off someone even at Vaas' pace.

See it here:

With or without helmets?

Mohsin you!!!!!

[ABDeVilliers]

It is nothing exceptional. I have seen a lot of wicket keepers keeping just behind the stumps while fast bowlers are bowling. Moreover, Vaas does not have express speed.
