The 5 best finishers in world cricket currently

#1 Jos Buttler (England)

Buttler is simply the best finisher at present

At the top of our list, we unsurprisingly find England's Jos Buttler. The wicket-keeper has catapulted his game onto another level and deservingly finds himself as the best finisher across the globe.

In ODIs, Buttler averages 39.7 with an astounding strike rate of 116.97. Though his combination of strike rate and average alone would propel him into greatness, his knack of coming up with the goods when the chips are down separates him from the rest of the pack.

The wicketkeeper is bestowed with the gift of mixing efficiency with extravagance and has rarely ever let his side down.

At this juncture, Buttler is the undisputed best finisher in the world and if he continues in the same vein, he might even stake a claim to being one of the best ever alongside a certain MS Dhoni.

Though talks of a comparison with the Indian could yet be a little too premature, there is absolutely no doubt that Buttler is head and shoulders above his peers in the art of finishing currently.

Thus, he takes the numero uno spot on our list easily.
