Jadeja And Jonty Are From Different Generations That's Why Their Comparison Isn't Worth It, Both Of Them Have Done A Tremendous Job In Their Respective Eras, In Case Of Rhodes, He Is The Father Of Modern Fielding, So Comparing Him To Any Other Fielder Is Worthless And In Case Of Jadeja, This May Offend Someone But He Is The Best Fielder Of The Post Jonty And Ponting Era, He Can Do Everything Diving Catches Quick Reflexes Catches Jumping Catches Running Catches Quick Throws Direct Hits I Don't Even Remember The Last Time He Dropped A Catch
In my school days we all started to like fielding just because of Jonty and everyone used to think they are Jonty when they save a run 😃 Such was his charisma..... a true legend and there cant be another like him for sure!
When I was kid If someone fielded well we used to call him jonty rhode If someone dive while fielding or running he was called taibu If someone batted well we called him tendulkar If someone batted slow playing defensive he was called dravid if someone hitting sixes he was jayasurya If someone bowled fast we called him akram or brett lee If someone spin well we called him sharne warne or muralitharan If someone wear goggles and had swag he was called Dada ganguly
What Sir Don was to batting, Rhodes was to fielding! What a fielder..used to save atleast 10-15 runs for SA almost every game..he was, is and will remain the benchmark and reference for fielding ❤ The most influential acrobatic-star of Cricket!
Thanks for this tribute! Not many people know that Jonty had to fix his batting technique to get rid of his hockey tendencies. Once it was fixed, he averaged 50 in Tests before concentrating on ODIs.
I have watched jonty's fielding with great enjoyment, I named my cat jonty because of his Aarial abilities. I'm From England, a great English tennis fan but I think jonti, for me, was the best.and he was always smiling he really loved the game. From a 73yr old female fan called gerry 😊 Saw this 2024 December.
What a team that was where Jonty Rhodes had fielded with his exceptional ability beyond Cricket play imagination and Late South African Skipper Hansie Cronje with his flair to hit the balls for super sixes & I feel fortunate to view all those exceptional matches.
The best fielder! His fielding was like a batsman getting a hundred or a bowler getting a 5fer! He changed the complexion of the games with genius fielding moves
When Jonty was in the field - you could see the batsmen fearing to take the normally "safe" single. He was phenomenal - taking down brilliant batsmen that was on track to score huge numbers of runs when there was not a real chance for mere mortals to take the catch or runout.
That 90s SA team was something else. Kirsten, Gibbs, Kallis, Cronje, Boucher, Rhodes, Klusener, Pollock, Donald and De Villiers. They were good at tests and incredible at ODIs. Its sad that they didn't win any of the Word Cups in the 90s.
They came very close in 99 world cup. Klusener was the man of the series I think. I remember that tragic semifinal where klusener celebrated prematurely and the team lost. And in 2000 match fixing scandal hit Cronje among others
You my good sir, are a legend! Thanks for the memories and honouring Jonty! Literally the only cricketer renowned for his fielding though he was a great batsman too! I stopping bowling because of Jonty, spent more time on my fielding and bought his pants when his fashion line dropped 😎
He was a wonderful fieldsman, and everyone is entitled to their opinion, but saying he is "undoubtedly" is more than a bit too much. Ponting and Jadeja are believed by many, including myself, to be better all around fielders, That's just opinion as well, but the fact that those opinions are held by a lot of people means we really can't say Rhodes was "undoubtedly" the best.
@@outandaboutintheworl do Ponting or Jadeja have world record catches in a match? Do they have 100 catches in ODI... No!! So Jonty is the best undoubtedly and undeniably. Just give credit where it's due.
@@inamngqeketeRhodes took 105 ODI catches. Ponting took 160 catches. By your own measure you're completely, hopelessly wrong. And total catches is a stupid measure, being a product of games played and catches generated more than a player's catching skill. But even if we pretended it was what mattered, Ponting is 55 ahead of Rhodes.
Thanks for bringing attention to Rhodes, I feel he is often forgotten as time has passed. In the 90s Rhodes' fielding was legendary. Square of the wicket I still don't think there has been any better since when it comes to saving runs and catching. I think Ponting was better at direct hit run outs and as an all-round fielder. None was better at saving runs at cover than Ponting.
A GREAT VIDEO with a great commentary track for one of the GREATEST LEGENDS of the game …..the only real magician to ever play the game….. All hail Jonty Rhodes …….🙏🙏🙏
First of the great fielders was Colin Bland of South Africa. Then there was Clive Lloyd of West Indies, both magnificent in the cover point and mid wicket regions hitting the stumps nearly every time. Then came this fella, Jonty Rhodes. He was like a fish out of water, taking catches horizontal from the ground and his hitting of the stumps running batsmen out was extraordinary. I do apologise I forgot to mention Derek Randall of England who was in the same mould as Lloyd & Rhodes, brilliant fielder.
Thank you so much for this video. Very well done. Jonty is no longer a man, he is a legend and one day he will fall into myth but his name will last forever.
When people think of batsmen, Tendulkar and Lara always come to mind. When you think of bowlers, Warne (RIP) Ambrose come to mind. Fielders only Rhodes comes to mind such is his influence
Jonty was the best fieldsman iv'e ever seen. Ponting was a great run out man (as was Rhodes), but Rhodes took some of the best catches of all time. He was dynamic in the field & set a very high standard for world cricket.
I had the very good fortune to attend an ODI between India and South Africa at the Wandersers. Sitting high up in a stand at the golf course end, Alan Donald bowled so fast, I could hardly see the ball. In one of Alan's deliveries, the following happened. Alan Donald steaming in, delievers the ball, the batsman hits the ball and Jonty is on the ground having taken a spectacular catch. I recon this happened in less than half à second. I did not even see the ball. I did get to see Jonty play in several other games and he was a delight to see fielding at baçkward point. He saved many runs for SA with his fielding wizardry. Thanks for the video and highlighting just how good Jonty was as a cricketer.. Especially coming from someone who is assumed to be a supporter of an opposing team.
Absolutely South Africa was kinda one of the top teams in terms of bowling and batting - but likely not in the top three or four... But Jonty Rhodes changed that with his fielding. Jonty revolutionised fielding.
Changed way of fielding in the ground.The catch shown before inzamam run out was super stunning, confidence he had in running out inzamam was phenomenal.
Jonty rhodes in an interview said that suresh raina is a very good fielder. He also said that diving in indian grounds is difficult back then coz of less grass cover.
I watched his first class debut season in 1988 when fellow university student club cricketers kept talking about his running between the wickets and freaky fielding. So we went to Kingsmead where Rhodes for Natal made a good score against Western Province ..later he fieldes and i was unlike anything I had ever seen.in terms of speed across the turf , anticipation and acrobatic catching. He built up a huge local following with fellow cricketer/rugby player Errol Stewart who was similarly athletic. Haven't see anyone since Jonty with the same explosiveness, agility,speed in that point /cover point area.
Jonty was an all-rounder without needing to bowl at all. On his poor days he used to save 5-10 runs plus holding onto all his catches. In his good days at least a game changing run-out, gobbling up half-chance catches and solid batting contributions.
a great fielder can indeed turn the tide of a game, just like a great batsman or bowler. Thanks again. Your passion for cricket really shows in your videos
Throw Andrew Symonds in the mix too, Symonds was a better out fielder than both Ponting or Rhodes and almost as good in fielder. Never seen any other player dive on his chest following a ball to the boundary, gather the ball and bounce back to his feet without using his hands. Had a much stronger arm than both Ponting and Rhodes too.
I captained Jonty when he was just a 16 year old and the talent was already there. He played his first game for us, (our 2nd team) in a Sunday league, as he played school cricket on Saturdays, and scored 170 something not out. Incredible cricketer and a superb young man. I have nothing but admiration for Jonty and his entire family. I also played hockey with his father, Digby Rhodes and he was my wife's headmaster while she was a teacher at his school.
Jonty Rhodes made fielding sexy. The other person who inspired many in India was Azharuddin. We spent countless hours trying to emulate his fluid running pick and throw action, rarely succeeding 😅
One day cricket was exciting, 50 over, for those who remember. Test 5 day cricket was an absolute display of cricketing skill. Loved it because you could watch the tactics develop, only great player survived 5 day. SA politics destroyed proteas cricket, really fantastic to see some glimpses of the return of SA to world class. Just as the Bok team has made South African great again, now that the teams can select from all its people, the culture of sport is coming back. Would love to see athletes get back in a strong presence. Jonty was respected around the world and made fielding an important skill for the teams.
You Should Have Made This Video A Bit Longer, You Mentioned That He Was From A Hockey Background But You Didn't Mentioned That Hockey Played An Important Role In Creating Him Such A Great Fielder, Fielding Is An Extremely Important Part In Hockey, It Requires Speed, Agility, Quick Decision Making And Quick Reflexes, So When He Entered Cricket, He Took This Mentality With Him Also You Didn't Mention One Important Thing His Run Out Against Pakistan Is Not Special Because Of The Superman Dive, It Also Consists Of These Factors The Speed The Self Believe Of Making It Before The Batsman Jumping On The Pitch Can Seriously Injure A Player As It Is Not Full Of Grass But Jonty Rhodes Went For The Selfless Side This Could Have Shown The Beauty Of Jonty Rhodes Runout In A More Detailed Way
I think Jonty Rhodes brought respect and admiration to fielding, when the games was mostly about batting and bowling. The massive names in cricket with just batsmen and bowlers. But Jonty brought his own style and commitment to fielding that set the stage and benchmark for future generations. I grew up watching him in action, and he stole the show. Suddenly we were there not to see the batting prowess of bowling tactics, but to see Jonty demolish a team by stealing a small chance and devastating the batsmen. Its Jonty. The quintessential fielder.
Jonty was an incredible defensive fielder...amazing at saving runs and had very good hands. Couldn't hit the ocean if he was standing on the bottom though and rarely ran anyone out. Ponting and Mark Waugh were superior all-round fielders....Ponting was amazing anywhere in close to the bat and also has a 45 min video on youtube, just of him running people out.
Jonty Rhodes the bounty hunter on the cricket field, jokes apart, if cricket has something very unique after Jonty Rhodes, nothing!! The only fielder who has inspired cricketers and countries across the globe to watch this man perform on the field, imbibed, inculcated such skills but to no match though, Legends are forever, so is Jonty Rhodes, ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤, my nick name was Azhar for my contribution with the bat and exceptional fielding capabilities, but once Jonty made his debut every fielder is just a mere fielder, he was a hurricane, agile, fit, fast,accurate, live wire, what a man to see on a field, love him a lot, Jonty is forever a Superstar for the fielding discipline ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
He was the inspiration for all great fielders - Robin Singh, Kaif, Yuvraj.. Kaif probably most closely resembled him - having been picked more for fielding than batting (even though he was a fantastic batsman too).
my senior took me to a match in sec12, despite my 101 fever.... i always loved to field at closing positions... took a rhodes type flying catch to win the match.... and my inspiration was Rhodes... as a kid growing up watching Rhodes was true inspiration.. still @ 40, i field better than 20yrs kids..
Rhodes is the greatest Fielder he revolutionised fielding. At one point SA had Rhodes, Gibbs and AB deviliers in the offside. Nobody was getting through that field.
Can never definitively say who the best fielder is or was. What we can definitively say is that Jonty is a candidate. Along with Andrew Symonds and Paul Collingwood etc.
There will always a dispute for who is the best batsmen or bowler or keeper or captain. But when it comes to to fielding, Jonty Rhodes is unanimously and undisputedly considered to be the best. No one can be matched or comparable to Jonty
I watched Jonty walking off a hockey field bouncing the ball on the end of his stick which was vertical, remarkably he was chatting to one of team mates and wasn't even watching the ball.
As a West Indian, I have to say Jonty was the best. This man made my blood boil countless times with his superb fielding. 😂 Cricket would not be the same without him.

Thank you guys for the love and support. What do you guys think who is better, Rhodes or Jadeja?
Jadeja And Jonty Are From Different Generations That's Why Their Comparison Isn't Worth It, Both Of Them Have Done A Tremendous Job In Their Respective Eras,
In Case Of Rhodes, He Is The Father Of Modern Fielding, So Comparing Him To Any Other Fielder Is Worthless
And In Case Of Jadeja, This May Offend Someone But He Is The Best Fielder Of The Post Jonty And Ponting Era, He Can Do Everything
Diving Catches
Quick Reflexes Catches
Jumping Catches
Running Catches
Quick Throws
Direct Hits
I Don't Even Remember The Last Time He Dropped A Catch
Agreed. Jadeja is the best fielder of this era
Jonty Rhodes is uncomparable to anyone.

If someone bowled fast we called him akram or brett lee
If someone spin well we called him sharne warne or muralitharan
