IPL 2022: I Haven't Spoken To Gujarat Titans Exactly About What My Role Will Be – Matthew Wade

Australia National Cricket Team wicketkeeper-batsman Matthew Wade has said that he is unaware of his role in the Gujarat Titans in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 as he has not spoken to the team about it.

Matthew Wade, who is famously known for his exceptional knock against Pakistan in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2021 semi-final, was bought by Ahmedabad-based franchise, Gujarat Titans, for INR 2.4 crore at the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 mega auction.

Meanwhile, the Australian wicketkeeper-batsman Matthew Wade has said that he is not worried about his role in the Gujarat Titans team as he is flexible enough to bat at any position.

“I haven’t spoken to them exactly about what my role will be, but I would assume anywhere from opening down to seven I’m pretty comfortable with. It doesn’t worry me too much. If middle-order comes my way, then it’s another opportunity to get some game time in and play that role,” said Wade as reported by ESPNcricinfo.

“I know what I can do at the top of the order. I’ve done it for a long period of time now as well. I’m just really, really happy that I got the opportunity. It’s been a long time since I have. I feel blessed in that I’ve been given the chance to go over there and play IPL again,” he added.

They’re class players for a reason and the best we’ve had in T20 cricket ever – Matthew Wade on David Warner and Aaron Finch

The 35-year-old wicket-keeper said that the Australian captain Aaron Finch and opening batsman David Warner are “class players”. He added that both the veterans will open the innings for Australia in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022.

“Everyone had their say about Davey and he got player of the tournament in the World Cup. Finchy is a class player and I’ve heard people questioning where he’s at. He averages 40 and strikes at 140 for a reason. He’s the captain of our team and the questions are always going to come when you get a little bit older and you don’t do well in one series.

“They’re class players for a reason and the best we’ve had in T20 cricket ever, and I don’t expect any change at the top of the order, to be honest. So those two will be there in the World Cup. I’m confident in that and when the big game comes they will nail it,” he further said.
