  1. Alec Stewart

Alec was a stylish right handed English player. He played a very classy at cover drive and pull shot on his day. Stewart played 133 test matches, which is the second highest number of matches for any wicket-keeper batsmen in the history of the game.Mark Boucher

From the time he started keeping for the Proteas until his retirement, Boucher was South Africa’s first-choice wicket-keeper and is widely regarded as one of the greatest wicket-keepers South Africa has ever had. If it was not for an injury that caused him to retire, he surely was going to be South Africa’s greatest wicketkeeper with the bat, a real fighter low down the order for South Africa.

  1. Brendon McCullum

He is a retired captain of New Zealand in all three forms of the international game. Brendon McCullum used to bruise bowling attacks like a selected few other men in international cricket. He was aggressive in his approach. He was a leading runs scorer in T20 format.

  1. Mat Prior

First ever England wicket-keeper to score a century on debut with an unbeaten 126 at The Lord’s. He was a dashing lower order test batsmen in test and his aggressive right-handed batting enables him to open the innings in ODI matches.

  1. Kamran Akmal

Kamran Akmal was a very talented wicket-keeper batsman for Pakistan. With quick-scoring ability he could change the game any time against any team. His 109 from the number eight position at Mohali, was the very vital innings from Pakistan prospective. This has been fun, but difficult to draw up this list because all wicket-keepers in the world are special in their own way.
