Grassed a few recently hasn't he? Is Dravid the best choice for 1st slip in the Indian team any more?

International Coach
Wade's a bit all or nothing with the bat and technically a tad loose at times; I don't think that's what Australia needs from its #7 at the moment even though he's a better allround batsman than Nevill. He'd be able to push home an advantage but I wouldn't back his ability to arrest a collapse against good bowling in the same way Nevill would.
Sorry mate... but that is a pretty poor theory to not to pick a guy who has been doing pretty well and that too coming in pretty dire situations given how poor Vics top order has been this season.

Also the attempt should be to stop these collapses rather than hoping a guy batting at #7 would come and clean up the mess created by guys at the top.

Edit: You know luck is on your side when a bloke like Dravid drops you.
