MS Wade
Right-handed bat
MS Wade, a batter, has played fourteen BBL seasons for three clubs, and has scored 2,933 runs, the 9th-most in BBL history.
The arrival
MS Wade's first BBL season was 2011-12, with Melbourne Stars.
That first season brought 6 matches and 113 runs. The best was still to come.
The peak
The high point with the bat was 2018-19, for Hobart Hurricanes: 592 runs at an average of 42.3, striking at 144.4 in a season when the league as a whole struck at 121.1, with 6 fifties, and a highest score of 88. There were four seasons of 300 runs or more in all (2018-19, 2019-20, 2021-22 and 2022-23).
Measured against the league around it, though, the most destructive season was 2019-20: 351 runs at a strike rate of 164.8, 39 runs per hundred balls quicker than the BBL as a whole that year.
Club by club
2011-12 to 2013-14, Melbourne Stars. 13 matches and 255 runs.
2014-15 to 2015-16, Melbourne Renegades. 13 matches and 245 runs.
2017-18 to 2025-26, Hobart Hurricanes. 82 matches and 2,433 runs.
3 spells with three clubs in all. The longest was with Hobart Hurricanes, 2017-18 to 2025-26. 2016-17 is missing from the record: a season without a BBL appearance.
How the runs came
Across the career, MS Wade has struck at 137.2. The league around those same seasons, weighted by how much batting each one involved, struck at 124.3, so MS Wade has scored about 13 runs per hundred balls faster than the typical batter of the time. 55% of the runs came in fours and sixes: 250 fours and 102 sixes, the 8th-most sixes in BBL history.
Where it stands
On the all-time BBL lists, among 526 players, MS Wade stands 9th for runs, 18th for matches played and 8th for sixes. The story is still being written: 2025-26 was another season with Hobart Hurricanes.
