The best keeper-batsmen of all time.

Adam Gilchrist, without an iota of a doubt, is the greatest wicketkeeper-batsman of all-time. He could single-handedly take the attack to the opposition on any day at the top of the order in ODIs and demolish them with his sheer presence down the order in Test Cricket.

With the willow, he has scored over 15000 runs at a very brisk rate and has centuries to his credit. He in many ways can be said as the man who pioneered the way the wicketkeeper-batsmen should play.

He was like a daredevil behind the stumps with 813 catches and 82 stumpings across the formats for Australia. More than the records, the way in which he impacted the future generations has been impeccable with many upcoming keepers idolizing him.
