syed Kirmani - Kirmani won the award for the best wicket keeper in the 1983 Cricket World Cup, his highlight of which was the catch of Faoud Bacchus that he took in the final against the West Indies. In the first round match against Zimbabwe, he equalled the then record by effecting three catches and two stumpings. Against West Indies at home, he partnered Sunil Gavaskar - who scored 236* - in a record stand of 143* for the ninth wicket in the Madras Test.
To me KIRMANI IS THE BEST one. Later on many number of wicket keepers came and gone. Till date he is made a mark of his band in the cricket. Popularly known as 'Kiri', Syed Kirmani is generally regarded as the finest wicket keeper to play for India. He started off as an understudy to Farokh Engineer in the tours of England in 1971 and 1974 and to the 1975 Cricket World Cup.
