Top 5 highest scores by wicketkeepers in ODIs

#4 Luke Ronchi, 170 vs Sri Lanka, 2015

Ronchi became the second oldest ODI centurion for the Black Caps.

The current Kiwi keeper, who formerly played for Australia, is increasingly being identified as one of the better players of spin in the New Zealand line-up. Included for this Test series in India, Ronchi has looked in fine form, anchoring the middle-order with his assured strokeplay.

The 35-year old, who is more talented than is reflected by his mid-20s batting average, brought his A-game to the fore during an ODI against Sri Lanka earlier last year, helping himself to an unbeaten 170, the highest score by a number 7 in ODIs.

The Kiwis stumbled to a poor start, losing their first four wickets for just 84 runs. Helped along by a wayward bowling display by the Lankans, Ronchi combined with Grant Elliott for a 267-run stand, also becoming the second oldest centurion for the Black Caps.
