5 greatest wicketkeeper-batsmen of all time

#3 Mark Boucher

The South African Legend

Mark Boucher would have become the first wicketkeeper in the history of the game to have had 1000 dismissals but an unfortunate eye injury during a practice game in England cut short his career and, was left standard on a heartbreaking 999. Boucher could never recover from that freakish injury and, announced his retirement shortly after that. But he will be remembered as one of the greatest glovemen in the history of the game.

Boucher always came handy with the bat when the team needed him the most. He played the role of the finisher perfectly and used to score at a faster pace. He has won matches single-handedly for the Proteas along with the tail.

To go with the breathtaking records with the gloves, he has scored over 10,000 runs in his illustrious career.
