Vice-captain Gilchrist is tall for a wicketkeeper but is the genuine all-rounder Australia lacked for some time.
His explosive batting earned him the sobriquet 'The Destroyer' during the Champions Trophy in Colombo where he became the first wicketkeeper to take 200 catches in internationals.
Brilliant strokemaker who is probably the most talented wicketkeeper-batsman in world cricket today.
Devastating player who can take the battle to any attack - and destroy them.
Not surprisingly a joy to watch.
