Alec Stewart was also great keeper from England, with keeping he was also a good opener and batsman who led England side with many crucial victories.
He hit top form again during the 2000 one-day triangular series, and when he scorched a century in his 100th Test, the sheer length of the standing ovation he received suggested that Stewart had become a national institution. But his squeaky-clean image took a blow during England's 2000-01 tour of Pakistan when an Indian bookmaker alleged that Stewart had accepted money for information during England's trip to India in 1992-93. Stewart survived, though.
Alec Stewart’s record is the one which every team would fancy when discussing wicket keeper batsmen. He scored 8,463 runs in Tests and kept the wickets and accounting for 451 dismissals in Tests as well as ODIs. He was also responsible for 753 dismissals in his first-class career scoring 26,165 runs. Stewart also had 15 Test hundreds to his name. Top Ten Greatest Wicket keepers Of All Time is simply dazzled.
