Fielding
Waugh took a record 181 catches in Test matches, the second highest for a non wicket-keeper. He primarily fielded in the second slip position whilst a fast bowler was operating. He would field at silly point whilst a spin bowler was operating, and then at first slip for a spinner following the retirement of Mark Taylor. He would also field at mid-wicket or short mid-wicket when he was not required in a close catching position, and also during ODIs.

Famous quotes containing the word fielding:
“Agreeable then to my present inclination, I formed the object of my own worship, which was no other than my own understanding.”
—Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)
“Thwackum was for doing justice, and leaving mercy to Heaven.”
—Henry Fielding (1707–1754)
“A lover, when he is admitted to cards, ought to be solemnly silent, and observe the motions of his mistress. He must laugh when she laughs, sigh when she sighs. In short, he should be the shadow of her mind. A lady, in the presence of her lover, should never want a looking-glass; as a beau, in the presence of his looking-glass, never wants a mistress.”
—Henry Fielding (1707–1754)
