If the criteria for being a good keeper is the occasional screamer then Maxwell is a good batsman.
For what it's worth I don't think Haddin is terrible, and no-one is really beating down the door to replace him. If he can score 40 - 50 more regularly then he should retain his spot, but his keeping, while usually good, isn't good enough to make up for the ridiculously low average he's had recently. Recent form suggests that he probably won't be scoring that many runs, happy to be proven wrong though.
