When I originally championed Wade for selection, I knew his glovework wasn't the greatest. But I never realised it was this poor.

In a Test series in India to an average spinner, you need your wicketkeeper taking all of his chances, or at least 9 in 10. Wade looks like 1 in 10 would be a huge challenge.

If he doesn't improve quickly, I don't know how we can persist with him. I don't like kneejerk change and want to see consistency in selection, but you can't overlook how poor he's been.
