Mushy may give up keeping in Test Cricket....An specialist keeper is as good as another additional bowler.... If he misses two catches/stumping per innings, match is virtually lost there. More over, if he isn't keeping, he is expected to concentrate more on his batting....Test match is a game of specialists, if you don't get a specialist keeper batsman...we shouldn't try to make it up by a weak keeper. And that keeper batsman strategy is more applicable for limited overs matches more than test matches... However improvement Mushy shows, he is still a limited capability keeper and his short height puts a lots of pressure on pace bowlers in test cricket....
