Wicket-keeping talent: Buttler, Dhoni, Ronchi, Rahim and Sarfraz.

India Test wicketkeeper Wriddhiman Saha was declared man of the match in the Kolkata Test for scoring two fifties and being nearly flawless with the gloves.

Here, we look at the other top glovesmen on the international scene…

Sarfraz Ahmed

Pakistan’s T20 skipper is the backbone of the team in all three formats. He has been exceptional with the gloves and the bat, scoring five international centuries.

Jos Buttler

The Englishman has come a long way. Starting as a T20 specialist, Buttler has shown the ability to be a long term prospect. Has hit England’s three fastest ODI tons.

MS Dhoni

The iconic player is the captain of India’s limited overs team. The most successful India skipper is also one of the most impactful batsman the game has seen.

Luke Ronchi

Ronchi moved base from Australia to New Zealand to further his career. It has worked perfectly as he now has close to 2,000 international runs.

Mushfiqur Rahim

The diminutive Bangladesh keeper packs quite a punch. He has more than a decade of fine glovework and batting under his belt.
