Bio
It is indeed a big achievement for the 25 year old Matthew Wade, wicket keeper, who is seen as a long standing option after the retirement of Adam Gilchrist. An all-rounder of sorts, Wade had played for Tasmania in both cricket and football during his growing years. It was in his early teens Wade was diagnosed with testicular cancer and underwent two rounds of chemotherapy before being cleared of the disease. When he came back to the game later, Wade went on to represent Australia in the 2006 U-19 World Cup that was held in Sri Lanka.
Wade is a frequent player in the Big Bash League and has played for long with Melbourne Stars since 2011. However, he was not sold in the 2014 IPL auctions after Delhi Daredevils decided not to retain any of the players for the 7th edition of the IPL. He is still the first-choice wicket-keeper for Australia after the retirement of Brad Haddin.
