Electric current is defined as flow of positive charges conventionally. Hence when a circuit is completed only the free electrons which can flow ,flow due to generated field. This is equivalent to flow of positive charges in opposite direction . But the positive charges actually do not flow .

Actually the convention here is that the electric current here is treated as positively charged , and because of this out flows opp to the direction of elections.
