I'm sure just about everybody agrees with me when I say Wade Seccombe is Australia's best gloveman. But I've had a look at his batting. Last game against SA Seccombe came to the crease at 5-110 he ended up saving Queensland by hitting 67* and Qld made 310 all out. In the second innings Qld were 5-46! Seccombe played brilliantly and ended with 115 helping Qld to get 274. Qld eventually won outright thanks to Bichel and Seccombe.
His stats of late:
In the last two season he has scored 762 runs @ 40.10. Apparently in the season he got called up to the Ashes he was averaging just 11. But he found a flaw in his batting, early on in his innings he'd play more cross-bat shots rather than playing straight. Since then every week the coach or assistant has given him 1000 balls thrown to him a week.
His batting has also been top-notch in the ING Cup for the last two season's, saving Qld countless times.
Out of interest, do you think he deserves to be the ODI or test keeper? bearing in mind how well his batting has come along and he is the undisputed best golveman in Aus.
