But the problem is if I take out a slip or two, I've seen edges going through there. For example, last night Holder got a 50 so I only kept 2nd and 4th slip and a gully and one of the edges went right in the 3rd slip position for four. It's like the only place edges go(with the exception of the keeper) is where the fielders are not placed. I also saw a lot of inside edges go for four.
Out of 20 dismissals in my last test match, 19 of them are either bowled or caught behind. And 1 lbw. Seems like slips is a very useless fielding position right now
