This is a chronological list of Pakistan Test wicket-keepers.
Pakistani wicket keeping has been stable over the years, with Pakistani selectors often unwilling to rotate players. As a result, several of these players have ended up captaining Pakistani sides in part because of their longevity in the team, such as Wasim Bari, Imtiaz Ahmed, Moin Khan and Sarfraz Ahmed.[1] Wasim Bari is the longest-serving wicketkeeper for Pakistan.[2]
Anil Dalpat is the only non-Muslim wicket-keeper who represented Pakistan.[3]
