And it's a tantalising thought, revealing just how far ahead of the play Doig is. Imagine if you picked the best players for the Clear Black Caps right now - you'd have to open with Anna O'Leary and Rebecca Rolls, both outstanding strikers of the ball. No room for Parore - he has been keeping well, but Rolls is by far the better bat. And captain too, her efforts at defending 184 were astonishing. Outdated and over-rated concepts all three.
Women prefer guile, cunning and craft.
Okay, point taken. Debbie Hockley looked a bit shaky last Saturday, but you can't coach experience. She has to be in, she's one of the greats. I couldn't believe she came in at six. Now I like Vettori, but Nicholson and Catherine Campbell have to be the spinners.
