Top 5 specialist wicket-keepers who were not batsmen

Rod Marsh

Rod Marsh held the record of most dismissals behind the stumps when he retired in 1984 as Australia’s most successful wicket-keeper. Marsh did not have the perfect built for a wicket-keeper but he was very agile behind the stumps. His unwavering concentration, athleticism and flawless technique made him a respected figure in the game. Ironically, he started off as a specialist batsman but his fame in the history books will certainly go down to his abilities with the gloves.
