Wicket-keeping records

The wicket-keeper is a specialist fielder who stands behind the stumps being guarded by the batsman on strike, and is the only member of the fielding side allowed to wear gloves and leg pads. ^[88] Many players have played matches both as a wicket-keeper and as a regular fielder; in the records below, the number of innings refers to those where the player was the nominated wicket-keeper, and the number of catches only include those taken as a wicket-keeper.

Most career dismissals

A wicket-keeper can be credited with the dismissal of a batsman in two ways, caught or stumped. A fair catch is taken when the ball is caught fully within the field of play without it bouncing after the ball has touched the striker's bat or glove holding the bat, ^{[89] [90]} while a stumping occurs when the wicket-keeper puts down the wicket while the batsman is out of his ground and not attempting a run. ^[91] Jos Buttler is the highest-ranked English player in the list of most dismissals in T20Is as a wicket-keeper, a list headed by India's MS Dhoni and West Indian Denesh Ramdin. ^[92]
