They where always taking a spare wicketkeeper over, They will only use Wade in the shorter forms of the game, And Haddin for the Tests.
Sorry but why would anybody pick Haddin for the tests? I'm sick to death of the old boys club in test cricket. He was ****ing ****e against india, and does not deserve to wear the gloves anymore. It's an absolute joke he's even being taken over there. Rubbish keeper that without his batting would be lucky to make a state side.. Oh and guess what?!!! He's a **** batter as well now!
lucky for you then since he is an ex-test keeper that guarantees him at least another year with the blues |

Clarke has been ruled out of the one-dayers while he stays in Sydney to recover from a hamstring injury.

Clarke ruled out of Windies ODIs
Michael Clarke has been ruled out of the entire limited-overs leg of Australia's tour to the West Indies.
Initially in doubt for the opening ODIs after sustaining an injury to his left hamstring this week, the right-handed batsman will not compete in any of the five one-dayers nor the two Twenty20 Internationals.
It is hoped he will be fit in time for the three Tests, the first of which gets underway in Barbados on 7 April.
"Michael's scan has confirmed a left hamstring strain and he will not travel with the team to the West Indies," said team physiotherapist Alex Kountouris.
"He will take part in an intensive rehabilitation program in Sydney and we expect that he will recover in time to take part in the Test portion of the West Indies tour.
Meanwhile, fast bowler James Pattinson, meanwhile, is nursing a buttock injury.
"James will have treatment in the West Indies over the next week in an attempt to be fit for the ODI series," added Kountouris.
Shane Watson, who took charge in Clarke's absence during the ODI tri-series with India and Sri Lanka, is likely to be named captain for the ODIs in the Caribbean before handing the reins to T20I skipper George Bailey.

I must say that this doesn't make too much sense with Bailey as captain. Firstly, it is the only form of the game he plays for Australia and more importantly, the reason why he was selected as captain in the first place because there was no viable alternative just doesn't hold anymore as Watson is back and he is a far better candidate especially since he plays all forms of the game and is the one-day skipper and even possibly Test skipper if Clarke doesn't recover in time... |

We need one captain, not a million FFS, just let Watto get the reins, he was vice captain before he was injured, so should just move him into the captain role of all three forms of the game...
I agree...he is all class in everything he does. IMO what all-rounder Flintoff failed to do as England captain, Watson as another all-rounder will show how to get the job done  |
