Best Keeper/Batsman would be Sangakkara for me.

Would have to  be boucher for me, although McCullum is getting better, but has had streaks of inconsistency

If it's pure keeping how can it not be Boucher? For me he is just an awesome and his batting isn't bad.
But for batting it would be Sangakkara as he just looks like a batsman and his keeping is good as well.

To me Sangakarra is a batsman who can keep very well, but as he isn't keeping at the moment it has to be Boucher.

I dont know his full name, but the young Jarwardyne is a very handy keeper as-well, Sri Lanka dont have to use Sangakarra with him in the side.

Being EXTEREMLEY bias i will say M.S. Dhoni  ;D ...but he is a great captain as well now he is batting up the order he is getting quite a lot of half-centuries.

But Sangakarra is a genuine wikkie-batsmen.

The anticipation of him emerging from the pavilion, and his walk from the boundary to the centre, is almost surreal. The sound of a passionate Indian crowd all chanting "Sachin, Sachin" as they wait in anticipation, followed by the enormous roar when he emerges onto the field, is electrifying.

Dhoni for me is a great keeper to spinners but to fast bowlers in swinging and sweaming conditions he has a bit of a struggle.
Jayadwardena is a good keeper and the reason he keepas in test i think is so sangakkara can just concentrate on his batting.
