Rahul Dravid holds the record for most catches in Test cricket with 210 to his name. He also took 124 catches in the ODI format as well. Perhaps one of the safest catches India has ever had in short-leg, silly point, and slip positions.
Indian bowlers considered themselves lucky to have Dravid fielding close in when they bowled as he pulled off some amazing catches in slips and other positions. One such bowler was Harbhajan Singh, who played extensively with Dravid having made his India debut two years later.

Harbhajan found a video online which had a compilation of some of the most terrific catches from Rahul Dravid in it and shared it on his Twitter account. “Outstanding catcher Rahul Dravid,” he captioned the post.
The post was appreciated by many other India cricketers as well including Anil Kumble, VVS Laxman, Suresh Raina, and R Ashwin, who applauded their former India teammate and captain, who did such good work in the field.
