MS Dhoni and Jos Buttler are arguably the best wicket-keeper batsmen in the world. With their cat-like reflexes, they are wicket-keepers that any team would love to have. They are quick, agile, and have presence of mind to inflict game-changing stumpings and run-outs. In fact, their presence behind the stumps has won their teams many games.

Keeping aside, they are unquestionably two of the greatest finishers of their generations. While Dhoni was the best finisher a couple of years ago, Buttler has now overtaken him to become the best finisher. They are generally cool customers, who don't let pressure get the better of them.

While Buttler is England's vice-captain in the limited over formats, Dhoni also performs a similar sort of role for India. Both these players will be remembered as the first T20 superstars for their countries.
