Matthew Scott Wade (born 26 December 1987) is an Australian cricketer, who has represented the Australian national team as wicket-keeper in all three forms of international cricket (Test, One-Day International and Twenty20 International). He plays domestic first-class and List A cricket for the Tasmanian cricket team, also acting as the team’s captain. He plays domestic Twenty20 cricket for the Hobart Hurricanes.

Wade played one List A match for the Tasmania Tigers in the 2006–07 Ford Ranger One Day Cup season, his only match for Tasmania in any form of the game in his first spell with the state side. His opportunities to be selected as a wicketkeeper in his home state were minimal due to the presence of Tim Paine, who at the time was seen as the likely successor to Brad Haddin as wicketkeeper in the Australian national team. Rather than attempt to become a specialist batsman, Wade moved to Victoria in the 2007/08 season, and within two years had established himself as the state’s first choice wicketkeeper ahead of incumbent Adam Crosthwaite.

He was born in Hobart (Tasmania), Australia.
