#2 Mark Boucher

Arguably the greatest wicket-keeper ever, Mark Boucher hardly let a ball go through, and he has a world record 998 dismissals in International cricket. Boucher was a capable batsman too, often chipping in with vital runs.

During Sri Lanka's tour of South Africa in 2001, Boucher proved why he is such a wily customer behind the stumps. As a ball lobbed up off Marvan Attapattu's pads, Boucher started appealing for the LBW along with the bowler, Johan Botha.

But once the batsman left the crease searching for the ball, an alert Boucher threw down the bails, catching him out of his crease. It was a case of brilliant presence of mind and quick reflexes.
