Nice quiz, but would you accept fly slip, 1st 2nd 3rd and 4th slip? I've also heard "2nd gully" in commentaries. I tried "slip" and that didn't work - "slips" and "fly slips" aren't names of positions!

Just to let you know Jerry928, there are 9 slips, 5 gullies, and at least 3 leg slips. Also, if I was to name every fielding position in cricket, I could gho forever. Did you see Michael Clarke's bizare fielding placement on Day One Test match against Pakistan. It was like a short straight hit position.n Anyway, thanks for the notification about your positions.

Also, to everyone that takes this quiz, if you find or hear a position that isn't listed here, let me know and I'll add it. I would like to name as many positions as possible before the year closes. The more the better.
