Adam Gilchrist is without a doubt one of the best wicketkeeper batsmen to have played the game. When he came into the scene in the late 1990s, wicket keepers were expected to be complete batsmen but his style of batting started a trend. All international teams now wanted to have someone who can bat as a keeper. 

He had an aggressive style of batsmanship and his way of batting was appreciated across the world. But, one of the things about him was that his aggressiveness was not just limited to his batting. He had an aggressive attitude behind the stumps as well. He was often heard making the mickey out of the batsmen. 

He would try to disrupt their rhythm by saying a few words. He would talk to them about their past batting performances or their weak areas. With all of this, Gilchrist was one of the most aggressive wicketkeepers. While there have been other wicketkeepers who might have been a little more aggressive than him, but he was simply the best in the role.
