Top 10 dropped catches

The Observer Sports Monthly magazine featured the top 10 cricketing drops, and some excellent drops there were too, featuring the likes of Gatting, Warne and Flintoff senior. Worth a look for those of you that haven't seen it already....

Poor Fred Tate! Fancy still being remembered for dropping a catch a hundred years ago!
Apparently he consoled himself by saying that he'd gone one (Maurice then aged 7) at home who would avenge him.
He was mostly right.

Another drop I always remeber was Graham Thorpe in Australia, I think it was 1994/95. I can't remember who the batsman or bowler were. All I remember was Thorpe, at second slip, dropped a sitter, then out of pure frustration kicked the ball away gifting the batsman a couple of runs.
