10 greatest South African cricketers of all time

#9. Mark Boucher

When Mark Boucher retired from Test cricket in 2012 due to an unfortunate and freak injury to his right eye, he had behind him 555 Test dismissals, a world record and a reputation of being one of the greatest wicket-keepers cricket has ever seen.

Boucher, for the most part of his career, remained the first-choice wicket-keeper for South Africa and he is the lone man to have more than 500 catches in Tests. In batting too, he wasn't a novice. His average of 30.30 proves the fact - and he played 147 Tests, which is an impressive feat.
