Top 10 Wicketkeepers with most stumpings in career

Top 10 Wicketkeepers with most stumpings in career

Generally wicketkeepers are considered to be the best fielders in a team. The tiresome job of reacting at every delivery of the game certainly demands something extraordinary. Similarly catching behind the stumps and stumping are two additional yet most important tasks of the wicketkeeper. Today wicketkeepers with most stumpings only are not considered to be the best ones but their job demands an all-round performance. In fact the introduction of a few new rules in cricket has put wicketkeepers under further responsibility. They were already the central part of an appeal for the lbw dismissal now the introduction of DRS has delegated him further duty. While going for a review generally a side looks towards its main man behind the stumps. So a wicketkeeper would not be a perfect one unless he keeps a sharp eye on batsman while going for review.

Wicketkeepers are involved in various types of dismissals in cricket and while the most dismissals by a wicketkeeper record belongs to Mark Boucher, most stumpings are done by MS Dhoni. The Indian limited overs skipper is probably the best wicketkeeper on the arena at present. Not just wicket-keeping MS Dhoni has no alternate in captaincy as well. The man with almost every single ICC trophy in his bucket certainly has the quickest hands behind the stumps. Even the legends like Adam Gilchrist and Mark Boucher are below Dhoni when it comes to stumpings. Of course he has played more games as compared to many of them however Kumar Sangakkara has played more games still is behind MS Dhoni.
