I dont think too many are saying haddin wouldnt take these catches/stumpings, it was just the amount of commentators on ABC radio/bigfooty who kept saying how they didnt rate Wade's keeping, im yet to see why they doubted it, looks pretty sufficient at present.

Only thing i see every now and then is maybe against spin (fair enough too, doesnt really have much spin to keep to for the Vics) he looks like he could improve, but at 25 years old he has a few areas to improve.

Love how they cant hit mckay's slower ball, even when he bowls six in an over, lolz

You can just about guarantee that Haddin would have dropped the one Wade took in front of Clarke, but he was probably 95%+ for all the others.

Wade keeping with one glove so he can get the throw back in quickly.

Interesting tactic.

Edit: Wish we had McKay to bowl the last over...

McKay & Starc's runs have been the difference, but how good was Doherty with the ball tonight?

M. Wade for motm? either way, with his batting in 3 of the 4 matches being good including 2 motm already, and now a decent haul with the gloves, there's not really that much he's doing wrong.....


Anyone know when the next team is chosen?
I would have thought Christian is favourite with his valuable 33 and 2 wickets. It is gonna be a bloody tough decision when Watto comes back to what they'll do with him.
