They cannot persevere with Wade.

But, but, but he calls Nathan Lyon 'Gazza' and the dullards down south think it's the height of good humour for some reason.

The selectors need shooting for digging this cretin back up from
The cemetery, another quality suggestion from King Victorian
Warne.

We all know, including the selectors, that his keeping is shit.

Supposedly, then, this imbecile was been brought into the side because he offered more with his batting.

Since this gimp's return he's scored 251 runs at 20.91 with a highest score of 57 (1 fifty).

f**k knows how many catches he's dropped. 30 byes in a game is unacceptable.

Then there's his supposed other skills like verballing. He can get f**ked.

He's a nuggety character.

Australian selectors have a hard on for those types.

It's part of the folklore.

If Nevill wants his spot back then he needs to scowl more and have the audacity to sledge a bowler even when he gets dismissed for single figures.

His keeping is rubbish, thats a given.

The way he was dismissed yesterday was atrocious. The ball was straight at the stumps, little bit of off spin into the left hander, he played directly across the line when a forward defensive was obviously needed, terrible shot, terrible technique.

Then he goes and asks for a review and the ball is half way up middle stump.

Unbelievable

I've still got a hard on for Tim Paine

Bats well and can catch

Paine will do well to get a run in the shield this summer because Lord Dickfingers has transferred back to Tassie and is in direct competition with him.

Although it would be fking hilarious if Wade moved down there and wound up behind Paine on form....

The Aussie selectors would probably still pick him

You just f**king know from the first ball of the summer Warne and Clarke will be banging on about what a good bloke he is, how much his keeping has improved, and how important it is to have an aggressive batsman at 7.

Thirty. f**king. Byes.

You're too tough, he's a class act, and tough - he'll turn it around, give him time. That other nugget tough bastard just score 100 outside of Australia, Wade will come good - look at what he's brought to the team since he cam back - WINNING - simple, you don't drop players of this calibre lightly (please)

AB wants him gone


Former Test skipper says Australia may look to hand Peter Handscomb the gloves for the second Test in Bangladesh

Former Test skipper Allan Border says there is a question mark over Matthew Wade's position in Australia's XI heading into the second Test against Bangladesh in Chittagong.

Wade posted scores of 5 and 4 in Australia's first Test loss in Dhaka and also conceded a total of 30 byes as Australia lost by 20 runs to hand the hosts their first-ever Test win over the Aussies.

https://news.google.com/news/search...rder/Matthew Wade Alan Border?hl=en-AU&ned=au

Giving Handscomb the gloves and Carter to the middle order is not ideal but better than having Wade in the team imo.
