Video: When Dravid became the first man to take 200 catches in Tests

Rahul Dravid without a doubt was one of the best slip fielders ever in the history of the sport. He had a safe pair of hands and his concentration levels were always high no matter what the state of the match was, much like his batting. 

He became the first man to take 200 catches in Test Cricket, and how memorable it was? The match was played at Durban and India had just made 205 runs in their first innings. In return, South Africa were also struggling. The scorecard read 103 for 6 when Harbhajan bowled to Dale Steyn. The offie found a faint edge as the ball narrowly went past MS Dhoni. But Dravid anticipated it quickly and showcased his reflexes to take a diving one-handed catch. This was definitely one of the best catches he had ever taken in his career.
